http://erlangen-crm.org/current/P3_has_note Nambu type 14, 8mm calibre semi-automatic pistol with holster and two magazines, c1932-1940 World War 2 period Dictionary of Guns & Gunmakers p367-8: Nambu: Kijiro Nambu (1867-1943) a Japanese Army Officer who retired in 1924 with the rank of lieutenant-general. Renowned for perfecting the Japanese derivation of the Hotchkiss machine-gun and an eponymous semi-automatic pistol, designed by combining best practise observed on a govt. sponsored tour of Europe shortly before the Russo-Japanese War began in 1904. Nambu Pistol: Elements of many European designs seen (or imagined) in the design of this recoil operated pistol credited to Kijoro Nambu.The earliest Nambu is said to date from 1904 - featured raked grip containing detachable box magazine, and a return spring in a separate chamber made as an integral element of the receiver; spring chamber offset to left to allow a pivoting strut to lock the frame and receiver together at the instant of firing. Nambu pistols were made in 2 sizes (the 8mm Model A and the 7mm Model B). By 1927 the basic Nambu pistol had been superseded in military service by the simplified Taisho 14th Year Type Pistol of 1925. The principal change lay in the introduction of two return springs and a straight-sided grip. Guns of this modified type made in quantity by Nambu-Seisakusho (renamed Chuo Kogyo KK in 1936), and the government factories in Koishikawa, Nagoya and Kokura until the end of WW2. Best ref. is: The Hand Cannons of Imperial Japan by Harry Darby (Taylor Publishing 1993)
