and stated I own a .32 conversion cylider for my 1895 Nagant revolver. Would anyone here have insight into fitting these properly? Manufacture? Contact info? Nagantman(awith all the videos) doesn't seem to be at home whenever I try and contact him.

It's a job best left to a gunsmith who has both experience and the proper tools to do the job right. The cylinders are not Russian made for the revolvers, they were made here in the US and despite the bullshit the revolver's importers put out at the time most of them require fitting. With this cylinder you lose the revolvers gas seal ability, I highly recommend acquiring original Soviet ammunition for it and learning to reload these rounds. They were made at least 20 years back, I don't know by who.

+1, that's a job for a gunsmith. Until you find one, shoot 7.62x38R in it.

Something probably best not done at all. Leave it original even as a shooter. The .32 is expensive in it's own right so no real savings. Want a good shooter revolver there are plenty of single sixes out there for example. I understand it can be fun to work on these things, its actually a lot more fun to buy more.
