An elderly friend gifted me his war trophy Type 38 Japanese Arisaka. It was given to him as he left Hiroshima, being part of the first boots on the ground there after the bomb. The rifle is complete with a non-numbers matching original bayonet and wooden scabbard. I've checked at all of the local gun shops here in Maine (I escaped the hurricane, and am still in New England until early next week), and cannot find any of the 6.5 Jap (6.5 X 50) ammo or brass.
Would any of you have an inventory of reloadable brass that you would part with? I'm also looking for reloading die set, but not as worried about that as the brass.
I've spent some time cleaning the war relic, and eager to send some boolits down the barrel. I can trade brass for brass if trades are more your fancy. Have lots of oddballs (except this one) that I could offer as trades. Please nudge me with a PM if you respond to this post.
Thanks,
