Yeah. You can find surplus ammo online, but the newer stuff will be around $30 a box... Got this for $150

Very nice! Next thing you should invest in should be a Trench Gun. It's always fun to slam fire at cow turds in my buddy's watering hole  :cheers:

Much of the ammo available it is subsonic............which brings us to this.

I say just buy the .32 ACP cylinder and be done with it.  The cartridge that thing fired is a wuss anyways. 

Oh, and I bought mine for $85 about 8 years ago and have never fired a shot through it.   :D

The Nagant revolver can safely fire .32 Long without any modification. This has been tested many times, myself included without any issue, and will save you a lot of money!

Does it retain the seal between cylinder and barrel with the .32 long?

Yes and no. The .32 long doesn't completely fill the cylinder but the cylinder still locks up with the barrel.
