Initial production was by the Nagant factory with around 2600 revolvers built before manufacture was licensed to Husqvarna Vapenfabrik in 1898. Husqvarna built around 14,000 more before production ceased in 1905. This revolver did not have a long service life as it was replaced by the Browning designed M/07 automatic in 9mm Browning Long in 1907. It is chambered for the 7.5 x 22mmR cartridge which in power is about equal to the .32 S&W Long. (Smith & Wesson forum)
