That guy needs to head down to Walmart, aisle 14, left hand side, and buy a freakin' clue.

That's some great info! Thanks man!
Lol assuming that wasn't just off the top of ur head, Is there like a website or something you use that brings up the build dates of old firearms?

type 14

you can questamate if it is loaded by inserting and measuring cleaning rod in the bore

Looking at the 1911 followed by the Nambu, you don't need a history book to figure out who won WWII.

This is an informative web site for Nambu pistols http://members.shaw.ca/tju/jhg.htm

This seller on Gunbroker.com has magazines http://www.gunbroker.com/All/BI.aspx...Sellers=107574 There are also some for sale on Ebay.

Ammo here http://www.buffaloarms.com/8MM_Nambu...spx?TERM=nambu

I handload my own ammo.

The firing pins are fragile. The pistols were issued with a spare firing pin and there is a loop to hold the spare in the holster. The spare firing pin might still be in the holster.

If you ever intend to shoot it I recommend you get a reproduction firing pin and save the original. This gentleman provides reproduction parts including new firing pins and a new safety lever http://members.shaw.ca/tju/donspartslist.htm I had him make new firing pins for all of my Nambu Type 14's.

Godspeed to your Grandfather. May he rest in peace.

Working with mine, I couldn't help but think:

"Yeah, yeah, isolated, feudal, blah, blah, but they must've at least seen a Browning design by the time this came out, right?"

Seriously, a local copy of a .380 ACP 1908 would've been a vastly superior weapon.

I wonder if he actually sells any of those, seems like they've been listed forever. I couldn't get a nibble on my early nickeled mag for $75, shipped, although that was in the Calguns marketplace, a.k.a. "Craigslist for Guns".
