[QUOTE="Snattlerake, post: 3558325, member: 44288"] I know it's a POS. I know the Japanese made better models before and during the beginning of the war. This Nambu Type 14 was thrown together toward the end of the war in 44 but still has all matching serial numbers. The 8mm bottleneck cartridge is difficult to acquire and a disappointment to shoot especially when it jams every round. I also know my father fought in Okinawa in WWII and was in the 96th Infantry Division which was one of the 8 infantry divisions to be sacrificed in the invasion of Japan. To that effect, I treated this gun as would any European Theater GI would treat any German Luger brought home from war. It is now in the possession of my son. Serial #32268 [ATTACH=full]201333[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]201336[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]201341[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]201342[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]201343[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]201344[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]201345[/ATTACH] [ATTACH=full]201346[/ATTACH] [/QUOTE]
