Phil thanks for the info I'm not a big Japanese collector but this rifle just talked to me. I'm going to have to look that info over a little more. The vet that brought it back was shot in the leg by his friend and was sent home ( his friend probably saved his life). Gary
Phil I also have a line on some screws already
Amazing rifle with lots of character. The intact mum and burn marks really torture the imagination. "If only it could talk," as we all say.
OB I hear what your saying. other then the missing screws and the burn marks the rifle is in great shape. Gary
Honestly I wouldn't even add screws. I'd just leave it exactly the way you got it. But that's just me.
Ob the screws will be free so I can always take them out if and when I get them
Very nice... Burn marks possible Flamethrower... Which Island was it picked up on....???? BILL
