Made in November of 1943 at Nagoya Arsenal. Fixed sights, ribbed and knurled cocking knob, model markings on the left side of the frame, arsenal proofs, serial number and Showa "18.11" date on the right, large trigger guard, blue small parts and ribbed grips. Numbers are matching on the frame, bolt, trigger, and cocking knob. With a rubberized canvas holster, shoulder strap, extra firing pin (numbered to another pistol), cleaning rod and 2 extra alloy based blue magazines numbered 301 and 557 on the back.

Excellent, with 95% of the original blue finish, showing bright lines around the safety, edge wear, and light spotting. Grips are very good, with a few tiny chips around the magazine catch and light pressure dents. Holster is good, dried out with some scuffs and cracking. Mechanically very good.
