Heh, done? Reading comprehension your thing is it? Check out another key statement I made above "but I'll agree the design never caught on as it turned out you didn't actually have to use gas seal for an effective cartridge."
My entire paragraph, without removal for context, is:

"Either way, your justifications do not establish in any way why the Nagant gas seal did not catch on. At that time, the British had the excellent Webley and the US had superb Smiths and Colts. Who needed a Nagant? The next logical step was the auto, and that is why Nagant gas-seal revolvers (or gas seal revolvers in general) did not catch on - nobody was looking for revolvers when they came out."

You are right about the fact that users of the Nagant are only somewhat more limited than international users of the 1911.

You're just wrong about why.

Should have been done earlier.
