That particular one was made in Dec 1944. Note the horrible finishes and the wooden slab grips. By then both Type 94 and Type 14 pistols were made with any parts they could scrounge, often using previously rejected parts.

My Father-in-Law gave me a type 14 which was about as well finished as a gun gets. Back then it was next to impossible to get ammo for them.

Mine was made in November 1928. Also came with a holster, spare mag and cleaning rod. Many years later I sold it to a collector and always regretted doing so.
