Last night, I was watching another episode of "Hart to Hart". This time the bad guy was using what appeared to be a silenced Python. This show was from 1980.

The bad guys on the original Hawaii Five-0 were fond of silenced snub nosed revolvers.

IIRC there is a JFK conspiracy movie where a "second gunman" rigged a .38 snubby in a "Super 8" movie camera to take a shot at the motorcade from the Grassy Knoll. Gotta hand it to Hollywood, and thier technical experts.

I got me a whole drawer full of them over here but I only take them out on special occasions.
I'd post some pictures but I don't want to get the envy game started.

I have a Nagant revolver made in 1941.
Has the worst DA & SA trigger pull of any revolver I have ever shot!

Hollywood has been lying to Americans for decades about all kinds of stuff to the point that lawmakers are making laws based on the what they have been brainwashed to be true from watching TV and movies. Most people only comprehend the capability of "silencers" from what Hollywood has told them. I suspect most people today think we are all already required to register our guns . . . where do you think they get that idea from?

So the second gunman......
So the second gunman was right under everybody's nose. Zapruder putting a snub in his Bell and Howell. What a ploy.

And it's the only one.....
And it's the only one to have a 'triple action'. Cock the hammer, move the cylinder forward against the forcing cone and drop the hammer.

Had a Nagant a few years ago.
It had what is apparently a common problem where the forcing cone was of larger internal diameter than the chamber mouths...
Due to the gas seal design, upon firing the round's case mouth would fire form into the forcing cone and bell out. This made extraction virtually impossible. I even tried real Russian military 7.62x38mmR ammo to no avail.
What kind of surplus gun can't shoot its own military's issued ammunition??
That along with the stupid (and I mean STUPID) heavy DA pull made this by far the worst firearm I have ever owned. Thank god they got it right with the later Tokarev and Makarov (both are excellent). I would be truly sore if I had to carry a Nagant revolver into combat. Their interest starts with "history" and ends right there.

If you can brace your feet firmly enough to deal with the DA trigger pull.
The "sergeants models" I believe they were called were SAO. I wonder what the trigger pull is on those.
