A guy brought some items to my LGS today while I was there. It was interesting, but I know very little about them.
These were Japanese pieces from, likely, late '30's, early 40's from their history.
1. Japanese Arisaka (SP?) bolt gun-standard run-of-the mill like I've seen before. Average shape, ground mum, BUT somebody had 'installed' a home made recoil pad.
2. Japanese Arisaka bolt gun carbine model with bolt cover and bayonet still there. Average shape, ground mum.
3. Japanese 8mm Nambu pistol WITH original holster AND tools! Shape a little better than average. Matching magazine.
4. Never seen one of these before! A triple barrel flare pistol: 2 sxs + one on top of those 2. Selector switch at the rear, safety, etc. BIG HOLES, like 10 ga or maybe bigger.
He wanted a ball-park value but I had no idea. Very interesting pieces. They were post WWII bringbacks by a disceased vet.
