Nagant didn't have much to do with the Moisin Nagant rifle but sued the Russian government alleging they used some of the features from the rifle he had submitted in competition with the Russian designed Moisin. Nagant was a Belgium gentleman who later designed a very clever revolver that the Russians adopted, which had its own unique ammunition and an action that eliminated the gap between cylinder and barrel that other revolvers suffer from. He created in effect, the first Revolver Hi-Power.
