Another option for Indy

Post by bearbeast »

I always liked the M1895 Nagant revolver. The loading is kinda slow, but after all Indy is not a gun-slinger.

Do you think he'd use one?

Interesting Russian revolver, but I'd be surprised if he'd use one due to the nature of obtaining ammo in his world travels as well as replacement parts should he need to repair it in the field.

JMO, though.

Yup, I think that makes sense! He'd choose something sturdy, easy to fix.

It's nice to imagine him using this revolver, though. It has a very special look.

I thought that was a Chamelot-Delvigne Model 1873 as used by Rick O'Connell in the Mummy movies.

It is an interesting looking gun.
