Nagoya (名古屋市, Nagoya-shi) is the largest city in the Chūbu region of Japan. It is Japan's fourth-largest incorporated city and the third most populous urban area. Located on the Pacific coast on central Honshu, it is the capital of Aichi Prefecture and is one of Japan's major ports along with those of Tokyo, Osaka, Kobe, Yokohama, and Chiba. It is also the center of Japan's third-largest metropolitan region, known as the Chūkyō metropolitan area. As of 1 October 2019, 2,327,557 people lived in the city, part of Chūkyō metropolitan Area's 10.11 million people, making it one of the 50 largest urban areas in the world.
In 1610, the warlord Tokugawa Ieyasu, a retainer of Oda Nobunaga, moved the capital of Owari Province from Kiyosu to Nagoya. This period saw the renovation of Nagoya Castle. Nagoya was proclaimed a city in 1889, during the Meiji Restoration; it became a major industrial hub for Japan. The traditional manufactures of timepieces, bicycles, and sewing machines were followed by the production of special steels, chemicals, oil, and petrochemicals, as the area's automobile, aviation, and shipbuilding industries flourished. Nagoya was impacted by bombing from US air raids during World War II.
After the war, Nagoya developed into a major port and transport center. The Shinkansen high-speed line connecting Tokyo and Osaka converges on Nagoya. Nagoya is served by two airports: Chubu Centrair International Airport in nearby Tokoname, and Nagoya Airfield, home to Mitsubishi Aircraft Corporation. Nagoya remains an important center for the automotive, aviation, and ceramic industries, hosting the headquarters of Brother Industries, Ibanez, Lexus, and Toyota Tsusho, among others.
Nagoya is home to Nagoya University, the Nagoya Institute of Technology, and Nagoya City University. It is also the location of numerous cultural institutions, including the Tokugawa Art Museum, Atsuta Shrine, Higashiyama Zoo and Botanical Gardens, Aichi Arts Center, and Misono-za. Nagoya TV Tower is the oldest TV tower in Japan.
Here is a Nambu Type 14 Second Series from December 1943 out of the Toriimatsu brand of the Nagoya Arsenal. This includes the leather holster with leather ammo pouch on the shoulder strap/belt combo. There are a few rounds of the original 8mm in the ammo pouch that we wouldn't recommend to fire...
Beautiful 1941 Nagoya Type 99 Arisaka for sale. Will come with a Nagoya Bayonet as well. It has all the goodies like the dust cover, Monopod, aircraft sights and sling. The sling is definitely a reproduction, but I am unsure about the other accessories. Unfortunately, the mum has been grounded...
Good bore, matching bolt and receiver. Bayonet lug does not match. Metal finish is a little bit rough showing some machine tool marks and a pebbly finish in spots, typical of late war production. Appears to have an intact 16 petal mum, centered on the receiver. I am not an expert in Arisakas and...
Hello all -
For sale here is a Series 7 Type 99 made by Nagoya. This factory produced through the entirety of WW2. The bolt handle and body both match to the receiver. This looks to be a later war rifle as evidenced by the simplified safety grooves. It shoots smoothly with Steinel 7.7 Jap...
Im continuing to pare down my bayonet collection to my core interests as such there are a few bayonets I am no longer going to collect.
1. An excellent example of a 2nd Variation Type 30 bayonet made by Toyoda Loomworks under Nagoya Army Arsenal supervision. This bayonet was made around...
