I recently purchased a T-38 carbine, Koishikawa, no-series, # [0]02837.
Year of production? It had been withdrawn from service and is marked with the school symbol [shiki] and the double 0 preceding the serial number. What type of sling should it now wear?
Many thanx, Chuck.

Since the date of intial carbne production is lost, one could guess 1908- and not be far off. This is a very early carbine.

Any carbine sling would be appropriate now.
