One of these little guns is in the Ft Lewis museum. When I was there with my last rifle platoon doing a tour aside from duty the curator tried to tell us a made in Japan non gun was the scarce and rare gun in the museum...while I pointed this little gem out to my guys. Seldom seen little SMGs.

Unfortunately, I must have missed that particular rifle when I toured the museum, although I've got a picture of myself manning the twin .50 in the flexible mount. I was mainly there to get photos and measurements for a buddy restoring a M15 Combination Gun Motor carriage he had retrieved from an old logger in the Okanogan valley who had used it as a skidder.

It was up way over on a open wall like a trophy and the M60 was down below it. They could both be gone now, that was back in '90/'91...
