I have a trophy rifle my grandfather brought home from the war. From the little bit of research I've been able to do, I think it's a type 38 in 6.5 (whatever that is LOL).
My grandfather brought this home from the war, and actually used it to hunt with for a few years. I'm not sure what all he did to it, except for moving the sling from the side to the bottom of the stock (and repairing the "divit" it left behind). Eventually he was able to buy a "modern sporting rifle" for the day (which wouldn't be very modern now LOL) and this hung on the mantle for a few years, then was adjourned to a closet, passed down to me....stuck in my closet, and a few years ago stuck in the back of my safe to collect dust. I forgot all about it. I dug it out and decided to find out what I could about it. This is where you guys come in... I know somebody on here speaks fluent japanese rifle. hahaha
So who can tell me something about this?
