Japanese Nambu probably from a Type 14.

Your photos unfortunately lack clarity. Difficult to ascertain condition of magazine? If it's factory original and in very good condition, would have substantial value. Original Type 14 magazines have dried up, to the extent. That they themselves, have collector demand/value.

Thank You! after seeing your example and looking at other Type 14 Nambu mags for sale I'm sure that is what I have. Looks pretty good for something 70 yrs old. original bluing is good, a dent in back side and only pin spot rust in 3 places. I'm surprised japan actually numbered the mag to the gun.
