Developed as an interim step between a hand-thrown grenade and a full sized crewed mortar, the Type 89 could be carried by a regular infantryman along with their standard kit. Matching numbers on the tube, firing mechanism and baseplate, with the firing mechanism graduated out to 650 yards and a treated canvas dust cover.

Good, with scattered spotting and pitting, and areas of brown patina. Some screws absent. The dust cover is torn, and the dust cover spring has lost tension. Mechanically very good. NOTE: This Destructive Device is a National Firearms Act (NFA), fully transferable Class 3, which is registered with the Bureau of Alcohol, Tobacco, Firearms and Explosives, (BATFE) under the provisions of 18 U.S.C. Chapter 44 and 27 CFR part 479, National Firearms Act.
