=== Izhevsk Gun and Steel Factories === In 1884, the plant was returned to the state and became Izhevsk Gun and Steel Factories (IGSF). In 1885, IGSF started manufacturing [[hunting weapons]] and tools. In 1891, IGSF started [[Mass production|mass-producing]] the [[Mosin–Nagant]] [[Bolt action|bolt-action]] military rifle in a development of nine years, based on the design of the [[Gewehr 98|1898 Mauser]] rifle (Gewehr 98) with new unique features such as a [[push feed]] recessed bolt head. In addition to being one of the most produced rifles in mass-produced military bolt-action rifles in history, the Nagant is also used in every war from the time it was developed to the modern day. The rifle was produced from both the [[Russian Empire|Imperial period]] and the [[Soviet Union|Soviet era]], with military production concluded in 1965, but production for civilian use is continued to the modern day. In addition to the Mosin–Nagant rifle, Belgian industrialist [[Fabrique d'armes Émile et Léon Nagant|Léon Nagant]], who was a co-inventor of, developed the [[Nagant M1895]] [[revolver]]. The revolver has a unique "gas-seal" system that provides a boost to muzzle velocity as well as make the weapon [[Silencer (firearms)|suppressed]]. The sidearm, like the Nagant rifle, was produced in the Soviet era as well, and was mass-produced and used widespread.<ref name=":0" /><ref>{{Cite web |url=http://7.62x54r.net/MosinID/Mosinprimer.htm |title=A Brief Overview of the Mosin-Nagant Rifle |website=7.62x54r.net |access-date=23 April 2018 |archive-date=14 February 2020 |archive-url=https://web.archive.org/web/20200214212028/http://7.62x54r.net/MosinID/Mosinprimer.htm |url-status=dead }}</ref> {| class="wikitable" |- | colspan="3" | ==== Battle rifles ==== |- |Name |[[AVS-36]] |[[SVT-40]] |- |Image |[[File:AVS 36.JPG|frameless|170x170px]] |[[File:1940 Tula SVT40 (transparent).png|frameless|170x170px]] |- |Year |1936–1940 |1940–1945 |- | colspan="3" | ==== Bolt-action rifles ==== |- |Name |[[Mosin–Nagant]] | rowspan="3" | – |- |Image |[[File:Mosin-Nagant M1891.png|frameless|170x170px]] |- |Year |1891–1965 |- | colspan="3" | ==== Handguns ==== |- |Name |[[Nagant M1895]] |[[TT pistol]] |- |Image |[[File:Nagant_Revolver.jpg|frameless|170x170px]] |[[File:TT_33_Pistol.jpg|frameless|170x170px]] |- |Year |1895–1945 |1930–1952 |}
