Description:

Blade and folding ladder sights. The mum has been ground off the chamber with "9/7/Type" model marking on top of the receiver ring and the Nagoya crest and 1st Series stamp on the left side. Smooth pistol grip stock with a brown leather sling and a cupped metal buttplate. Equipped with an "EK" marked 2.5x10 scope which is numbered "26125" and "(1st series)12920", and a rubberized canvas scope case.

Rating Definition:

Very good with 60% of the original blue finish showing areas of brown patina, mild spotting and handling marks, and bright edge wear. The cleaned stock is good with mild scratches and dents. The sling is tearing at the front swivel, and the case shows scuffing and wear appropriate to age. Optics are generally clear with some spotting and fading of the reticle and light exterior scuffs. The scope case is fair. Mechanically excellent.
