Looked for years, but never found one.
At one of the big Sydney gunshops (Mick Smith's) there was a 7.7 Jap Fajen semi finished stock with excellent grain, etc, really good looking stock. They wanted $50 for it and I started looking for one, thinking I would end up with a nice rifle. After a few years, they dropped the price to $30. I never ever saw one!

I wanted a 7.7, because my dad got wounded by one in New Guinea in WW2. He was in pretty poor shape before getting shot through the forearm and the bullet lodged in his rifle stock. His commander dug it out with a penknife and identified it. They were short of soldiers, so they patched him up and sent him back to work. The next day he was a bit shakey and when his unit came under fire, dad was a few yards back and didn't see the guys go to ground. He was standing with his mate, Fatty who was also wounded and pretty weak and groggy (both had malaria and were just about starving) and describing how the birds he could hear were the same as the ones which used to fly in in summer. His commander, Gerry O'Day (affectionatly known as GOD) shouted out to him to get down before he got his fool head shot off and then dad realised what was going on. Lucky to get out of that one.
