 M1985 Nagant Revolver 7.62x38r

Model M 189 Russian double-action Nagant revolver, caliber 7.62/38 Those revolvers were in use during WWI and WWII, and many of them are still in use today. Tula Arsenal produced this particular example in 1941. The original finish and lack of import marks distinguish this Nagant revolver from the vast majority of Nagants in the United States.

That pistol, unlike the majority of its output, never made it into the Soviet arsenal and was not exported to the United States when Russia began selling obsolete WWII material. On that example, the very unique-original finish still survives – showing very honest wear, but still entirely authentic and very attractive. This weapon, I assume, was captured by the US Army during WWII.
