Question about possible Japanese Type 38 Carbine

[Skippy]

Claven's probably right price-wise.
These are valued highly only by a few hardcore collectors, hence why there is still so little mainstream information.

I have one Thia Carbine and its made a little differrent form the ones pictured above. The one I have has had the bolt handle and knob turned down smaller. It also has had the barrel turned smaller from the front sight back to where the stock comes. Then left full for about 2 inches and turned down again back to the rear sight. I gave $350 several years ago. I'll see if I can post a picture of the carbine and right under it one I made.

Edit: The picture of the crest would not upoad, I'll take another picture and post it later.
