    Hi For the stock you can use the same method as to maintain the walnut stocks of western weapons 1- degrease the stock with acetone 2- prepare one mixture with 3/4 therebentine and 1/4 linseed oil 3- with a brush put this mixture on the stock 4- polish with a cloth to remove the mixture excess Result the stock is semi-matt with the grain of the wood that stands out Regards

    Hello I have found this one total length 137,5 cm barrel length 101,5 cm total weight 4,066 kilogs caliber 15 mm (5 monme) this one can not be shot without support (too heavy) there are no kanji under the barrel (I think perhaps this was erased) There is only one silver inlay kanji on the top of the barrel but difficult to read (see pic) What do you think ? Hazama zutstu ? regards
