10/15/20 - This is a minty example of a Nambu Type 14, issued to the Japanese military in July of 1944. It is all matching, including the grips. This one has retained more than 98% of its original bluing. There is a hint of wear toward the back of the slide and underside of the trigger guard. There are a few very small areas of minor oxidation. The grips are excellent. Comes with a period-correct mismatched magazine. The bore is excellent - shiny with strong rifling.
