Why there aren't Japanese rifles among "favorite WWII rifles"?

[HOOKED ON HISTORY]

I just stumbled into an original type 38 Kokura and must say the quality of workmanship has put to rest the stories I have always heard about the "inferiority" of these weapons. Obviously antiquated vs. am M1
and that amoung many other factors not the least of which is the bravery and sacrifice of our fathers,mothers,grandfathers and grandmothers is why we are not speeking Japanese or German. Thanks to all of you who preserve the relics of this important time in history. Winners, loosers or even the Swiss.
