12/11/20 - This is a Nambu Type 14 issued to the Japanese military in May of 1937. It has early features such as a small trigger guard and nickel-plated magazine. The gun is all matching including the grips (hand-numbered) and comes with one matching magazine. The gun is excellent, retaining about 98% of its original bluing. There is a small area of wear on the trigger guard. While there isn't much actual finish loss, there are small spots of minor pitting here and there. The bore is shiny with strong rifling, but there are areas of freckling.
