Cheers, all!

Desperately looking for a T-44 Handguard to at least "cheat complete" my T-44, so I may take it to the range. No luck, so far! Sad

That means I am interested in a fixer-upper, a reproduction, or whatever is out there. I am not the richest gent on the planet, but will happily pay a reasonable price. Read on--Maybe I have a cool trade for you!

I also happen to be one of the original folks who brought you Charlotte's Axis Attic (The Web site about German, Japanese and Italian military rations of WWII), and would also be interested in trading my ration products (either of these countries, or allied stuff or WWI stuff) for Arisakas, bayonets, or a Type 14 pistol. Don't really need super pieces; representative and shootable would be super. In trade, I can complete your (Or your ENTIRE UNIT's) impression for your entire reenacting season with the proper chow in WWII packaging. We are talking issue rations for both early and late war, soldier's store kit and occupied country foodstuffs. Again--The real McCoy, as eaten by Japanese troops in WWII and before.-----Let's talk!

There are two types of T44 top handguards, which do you need?

Either can be made from a T99 handguard.

Originals are not often found on the loose.
