5/27/21 - This is a nice example of a rare Japanese Papa Nambu manufactured in the 1920's. It is all matching and comes with one period original but mismatched magazine. These guns are a little difficult to rate. They were generally used near salt air, which causes oxidation. This one has very little actual finish loss, but there is heavy spotty oxidation throughout. Heavy brown patina and minor pitting on the straps. Nice un-numbered wood grips with white markings on the right side. The left panel is a little loose. The bore is shiny with strong rifling and spotty freckling throughout.
