Showa dated "18.9" (1943, September). Matching partial serial number on the rear of the magazine. Includes a latex canvas clamshell holster with suspending strap, an extra non-matching magazine, a cleaning rod, a spare striker, and two sealed boxes of ammunition.

Fine, retaining some of the original finish with some light edge wear, thinning on the balance with some grey and brown patina with minor pitting on the backstrap, some scattered light freckling/discoloration, some specs of spotting, and light handling marks. The grips are very fine with some minor handling wear and well-defined ribbing. Mechanically excellent. The holster is fine.
