Japanese Handguns Article New Today

[Peter Bleed]

The latest edition of "Man at Arms" arrived to day with a nicely illustrated article by Paul Scarlata on "The Military Handguns of Imperial Japan Part I" Looks like a traditional version of the well-traveled story - Tanegashima, sakoku, imports, yahhh dahhh yahh dahhh. But it is nicely presented and clear evidence of collector interest in good Japanese arms.
