10/5/22 - This is an excellent example of a Nambu Type 14 issued to the Japanese military in October of 1939. It is all matching and comes as a rig with a very nice hard shell leather holster, two original matching-numbered magazines, a nickeled cleaning rod, and a spare firing pin. On the inside of the holster is the name of the American GI who captured it. The gun itself has retained about 97% of its original bluing. There is minor wear around the muzzle, front edges of the frame, and on the top of the slide near the ejection port. Some tiny pits along the barrel, an area of spotty oxidation and tiny pits on the left side of the slide, and some pin-pricking on the grip straps. The grips are hand-numbered - the left one is matching, the numbering on the right one is mostly worn away and illegible. Some tiny dings and handling marks on both grips. The bore is shiny with good rifling with a few areas of minor pin-pricking.
