Nagant 1878 modified
Nagant Model 1878-1886 (for officer). Marking on the cap: 170 E. According to an old Mister present at the time of the purchase (Which arised as a descendant of the Nagant family) it would be about a marking of the Civic Guard.
Thanks to Christian for the photos.
It is a modified M.1878 (10 mm front sight) in the service of the Civic Guard.
Very rare.
It turns
out that the Civic Guard was equipped with all sorts of different NAGANT models.
