Jap Type 14 Nambu

Shawn v. Il. · 10-13-2005, 06:42 PM

Hello Gents !
I just bought a near mint T14 Nambu ,19.5 date ALL Matching including the clip . I paid $375 for it , It was as low as the seller would go and the pistol was in such good shape I couldn't resist , so I may have paid too much .
The same seller has another one . 18.3 date ALL matching . The bad thing(s) are that the finish is only around a (conservative) 30% , The firing pin needs re-tipped , and it needs a clip/mag release spring . What should be the absolute TOP dollar that I should offer for a pistol in this shape . I know little of Jap weapons values , I guess I should stick with P08's & P38's

. Any how , any advise sure would be appreciated .

I forgot to add that the bore on the 18.3 pistol is in mint condition as well.

Shawn, $375 was a good price. For the other one, well 30%, I don't think more than $250 and maybe less?

Shawn:

I'm starting a project, in a month or so, to develop accuracy loads for my several T-14s.

Hope you enjoy yours too!!!
