Here's part III. 39 and counting.


The bottom 3 carbines on this rack aren't pictured, 'gunshow' stuff was in the way.

From bottom to top:

Nagoya 4th series Type 38 Carbine #30739 (100k produced)
Tokyo no series 1st variation Type 44 Carbine #25897 (56k produced)
Tokyo no series 1st variation Type 44 Carbine #32925 (56k produced)
Kokura no series 2nd variation Type 44 Carbine #60313 (9.5k produced)
Kokura no series 2nd variation Type 44 Carbine #64574 (9.5k produced)
Kokura no series 3rd variation Type 44 Carbine #67788 (3.5k produced)
Kokura 1st series 3rd variation Type 44 Carbine #05524 (9k produced)
Kokura 1st series 3rd variation Type 44 Carbine #08268 (9k produced)
Nagoya 2nd series 3rd variation Type 44 Carbine #2161 (11k produced)
Nagoya 2nd series 3rd variation Type 44 Carbine #6838 (11k produced)
Total Type 44 Carbine production, all arsenals, series, variations is around 100k.

FYI, one of the above stocks has been refinished by John Wilshire. It was refinished and lightly sanded by 'bubba' when I got it. They used a dark brown spanish walnut colored finish with a shiny coat of lacquer or varnish, I just couldn't live with that. Sent it to John and was very pleased with the results.
