    I must confess to googling it. Quite a bit of good info.

    An interesting rifle. Any idea of value?

    Wow, never heard of that one! I'd bet the quality is there seeing as how its made in Japan.

    Thanks !
    Very good link , some of the same info I had ?
    No idea of value ??? guess would be what-ever I could get from the right person ?
    Seems to be just like the other 'carbines' I own ? it is put up in one of my safes , a "non-shooter" for me (I have an arsenal rebuild 'winchester' that I shoot) ?
    Thanks !!!
