Antique Swedish Husqvarna Model 1887 Nagant 7.5mm Revolver, Shoots SMOKELESS .32 S&W Ammo!!!
Howdy Townpost! I'm looking to sell my rare bird antique revolver. Husqvarna made 13,619 model 1887 revolvers over the course of 9 years between 1897 and 1905. Of those only 350 were made in 1897, and thus those are the only antique status Husqvarna model 1887s in Canada that are recognized by the RCMP CFP Lab Technicians. This is one of them, number 260. These are not common to say the least. These revolvers are chambered in the 7.5 mm Nagant cartridge. The chamber dimensions are essentially almost identical to the 7.5 Swiss revolver cartridge used in their model 1882s. So you can make proper brass and the proper dimensional cartridge for this gun using either .32-20 Winchester, .25-20 Winchester, 7.62mm Nagant (1895), or 8mm Lebel Revolver brass as parent cases. I have some virgin 7.62 Nagant brass that I'll throw in as a freebie to the buyer and there's like 50 pieces in this bag. Or the more expedient way to shoot this gun is to shoot 32 Smith & Wesson long or short as an inexpensive and smokeless off the shelf ammunition. This is commonly done in Switzerland with Swiss model 1882 revolvers, and given that this has almost essentially identical chamber dimensions (they Husqys are actually little a bit tighter) you can do the same. So I decided to give it a whirl with the .32 S&W and was actually very pleasantly surprised by my results. My best three round group at 25 yards with PPU .32 Smith and Wesson Long with round nose lead bullets was 2 inches. Those were the first three rounds I fired through the revolver but the three following rounds in the same cylinder opened up to a 5 inch group as the barrel heated up. I still have the target and can provide a photo of it upon request. I imagine any almost any .32 Smith & Wesson standard velocity factory ammunition would be fine to shoot in this except Sellier & Bellot because it has a fairly small diameter rim diameter and the rounds sink into the chamber and will not headspace properly and the hammer can't reach them. One in five cases bulges and splits open, but the majority of rounds fired essentially fire form to the chamber and could be possibly reloaded in my opinion. Overall the ammunition performs surprisingly well for being how undersized it is and as long as you use lead bullets or maybe a hollow-based jacketed bullet, the bullet will expand and grab the rifling and stabilize very well and achieve good accuracy. The revolver is all matching except for three parts. The cylinder is an unserialized replacement. The trigger guard and the side plate are also replacements in the 4200 SN# range. The chambres and bore are all in excellent condition. There is one spot of extremely shallow corrosion sot in the bore and that is pictured. Beyond that, the bore is sharp with tall lands and is mirror shiny. And all of the chambers are very clean and shiny as well. They are also pictured. Overall the gun is in very good condition the most noticeable wear is on the color case hardening that is on the loading gate trigger and loading gate spring. The non-matching side plate was reblued to more closely match the original blue on the frame. I will include a little document dossier I've put together in a binder that provides documentation on this firearm. It includes a copy of the Firearms reference table entry or FRN, a copy of the regulations prescribing antique firearms, and some copies of emails I received from the RCMP lab technicians confirming their opinion of the antique legal status of this particular example SN#260 revolver that I received in order to import this firearm easily. So all of your legal bases are covered. The revolver is located in Calgary AB for local delivery or pickup. Or I can ship it nationwide on the buyer's dime. I can do Alberta meetups too. It depends on the time of year though and whereabouts. I too have video footage of me shooting this firearm with 32 Smith & Wesson ammunition and the target I used I just have to edit the clips together and upload them to YouTube. I haven't got around to doing that yet. I suspect the revolver will be sold before I get around to doing that, but I will upload that footage regardless for the buyer. But for now you'll have to take my word for it until I upload the video and if that's not good enough for you then you'll probably miss out on the sale cause it's exactly what happened with my .38 Special converted Colt model 1889 that's sold in less than 24 hours.

Low Content Wolfdog Puppies For Sale (Kangal, Australian Shepherd, Malamute, Gray Wolf Mix)
Pups born 2023. Photos of the puppies, parents, Wolfdog lineage and ancestors below; as well as the pups probable adult appearances when their ears go up. Pheebe is a female 100% Turkish Kangal who had these puppies. She bred with a male low content Wolfdog. She had 10 pups that survived birth out of 12. So there are are a lot of pups to choose from; 3 males and 7 females. Sold: -Brown Female: Homed -Fawn Male with White Face Stripe: Homed -Blue Merle Male: Homed -Grey Merle Female 1: Homed -Solid Brown Female with small white stripe: Homed Brown Male: Homed -Merle mottled female: Homed -Black & White: Homed -Black Female Wolfy pup: Sold -Red Hidden Merle female: Sold You will get the doggy appearance with slight wolf characteristics such as the mane and long legs and other features. I am doing an agreement to carry on the lineage in the future to who ever buys one of the males. The female he will breed when heโ€™s older will be a Caucasian Shepherd Lurcher mix, for a pup back deal. I have worked on the lineage for years. I would provide a free studding to you for a pup back. Any extra pup I would buy from you; you would have a litter and make money from it, or be able to keep one of her future pups as a family pet from her litter if you wanted. These pups will be for dedicated people, who have a fenced yard in town, or those who live rurally, and are able to provide food, and a loving home to these pups. They have been specifically bred for when it hits the fan, because it will in the coming years and already is. I lived fully Off- Grid and had time to consider which dog breeds would be the best for survival situations. These will be a versatile dog that will be large and able to defend its self and survive in the elements. This mix includes both the strongest and smartest dog breeds, and breeds that are the best for sled pulling and winter. The Dad (Wolfdog) is the most gentle chill dog ever, and the mom is extremely good with kids and people. They will display Dog and Wolf behavior, but mostly dog. The genetics will be 50% Kangal 13% Border Collie 12% Alaskan Malamute 12% Australian Shepherd 10.5% Gray Wolf 2.5% German Shepherd The dad also has an Embark DNA test done. The breeds in the mix arenโ€™t just random or happened by chance, but the Wolfdog lineage has been selectively bred for 50+ years. The breeds in the mix are for a purpose that would create an ultimate off-grid or country dog, that is loyal, strong, resilient to weather, will protect their family, are able to pull and do sledding, take out Coyotes and defend against Bears or Cougars, and be a companion and family dog. These canines will be able to withstand cold winters and hot summers. They will be good with people and in public, but will be able to let you know if anyone comes on your land, and also be able to take out Coyotes if need be. High and Mid content Wolfdogs arenโ€™t protection type dogs, but Kangals are good for that; though they are very good with kids and people, they will alert you to if they sense anything, and if need be (if a bear or cougar came along) will protect you with their life. Kangals are excellent with children and have a long lifespan for a large breed; 12-14 years. Wolfdogs also have a long lifespan, and Collies, Aussies. 15-16 years. Not only are Kangals large and tall, but they are agile, and have very few health problems. They have been used for thousands of years to guard livestock and as wilderness companions. These pups will have a low coefficient of inbreeding, with good genetic diversity. This is an extremely rare mix. It probably hasnโ€™t been done before with the above breeds all mixed and the percentages of each breed. This will also be the only litter between these two dogs. I have a family tree with pictures of the lineage all the way back to 1993 The pups will have good traits from all these breeds, and be more trainable, have recall, and not shy of crowds like some Wolves. (They are only 10.5% so will act like a dog). But they will be able to withstand the winters better, and have a greater genetic diversity, and be more robust than the dog breeds. The parents temperaments are amazing. The dad is very calm, loves cuddles, and wonโ€™t run away like many Wolfdogs. He has recall and will listen. He is extremely gentle and has no prey drive or resource guarding at all. Better than a doggy dog. The mother is a calm demeanoured dog that is super loving to her humans, is great with all people. She is good indoors, outdoors, and loves laying and walking with her family. She will protect her family with barking if she senses danger from dogs, Coyotes, or sketchy people that come on to the land. She is a sensitive female and submits to her family, and she is gentle with all people in public. Very stable and calm. She is intuitive, and is gentle with people. She is a sweet girl, and would guard her family if it were the last resort. Both parents have a extremely deep bark. So itโ€™s good to have them around if you are hiking. Her male pups will probably have a deeper bark than both. Most people want to own a high content because of the way they look. But donโ€™t know or have what they need. These ones are easy to raise, can be taken with you places and are like a dog, but have a little bit of Wolf in them that helps with their health. But when you get a Wolfdog, more people out of the general population, of the people who have a good setup or yard, would like the owning of a low content such as this litter. This is because you can take them far more places, they donโ€™t need as much meat in their diet, not expensive, are outgoing, donโ€™t need as much of a huge and expensive enclosure as a High content, they are more trainable and good to live indoors or outdoors, and can be pad trained easily; which high contents do better living outdoors. These parents both do great indoors. Will fall asleep with you on the couch. They will do good in a home and family, that will do training and take them on walks, and will have a yard for them. And of course most importantly, a loving home. Text or call 587-336-6789 for information and details, or to meet pups
