Type-I Brittle action prone to break???

[jeep]

School me on this . Is it web hype fiction or fact. Any shooters out there. In shear numbers of military rifles the I model is a drop in the ocean compared to main stay rifles. Maybe only 30,000 made in 1938-39 out of the 60,000 order and lots on the bottom of the ocean. Sunk on Japanese naval ships and the rumoured Italian shipments sunk in submarines and Jap I-boat cargo subs. Seems well made to me and some say they shoot better than the M38 Arisaka. Fiction or fact ????
