Payment Types Accepted: Credit Card, Certified Check, Money Order Description: WWII Imperial JAPANESE Type 14 NAMBU Semi-Automatic C&R Pistol World War II Pacific Theater Sidearm! Here we present a World War II Japanese Type 14 Nambu Pistol, made in October of 1944 under the supervision of the Nagoya Arsenal by a firm named Chuo Kogyo. The most common variant, the Type 14, was used mostly by officers, who had to pay for their pistols themselves. Towards the end of the war, the production quality began to decline in order to speed up manufacture. Nambu pistols were noted for their lack of reliability and stopping power compared to other handguns being fielded by other nations at the same time, such as the U.S. M1911 and Germany’s Walther P38. The Type 14 was the final iteration of Kijiro Nambu’s original design, adopted in the 14th year of Taisho Japanese calendar, which was 1925. It was simple and unique in many ways to other combat pistols during the war. It was chambered for the 8mm Nambu cartridge, which was a bottlenecked 8x22mm, and held 8 rounds in the magazine. This pistol is dated “19.10”, meaning that it was made in “1944 October” or the 10th year of the Japanese Showa calendar with the month being represented by the second number. The overall condition is very good. Lightly refinished. The action is strong. This example has a replacement trigger. The bore is bright with strong rifling. Both grips are fine. Markings are clear and crisp. Numbers match on the slide and magazine. The top of the trigger guard has been repaired. The holster is very good overall, but has stiffened and does not allow the pistol to fully seat. The holster also includes a leather lanyard. This firearm is classified as a Curio & Relic. Barrel is 4-1/2 inches. Caliber: 8mm Nambu Overall condition as seen in photos. Very Fast. Very Safe. FREE SHIPPING. Will need to be sent to your local FFL or C&R licensee.
