Gettting back to the begining of this thread. I just returned from Japan last week. This last trip was my 11th visit to Japan in 4 years.

I work for a Japanese company in the USA and I work with Japanese people all day. Also im famillar with their customs and can speak "simple use" Japanese. I have to marvel at their facination with shooting. its like totaly foreign to them and they want to experience it. Every Japanese guy I meet in the USA wants to shoot guns. It reminds me of when I was a kid and couldnt satisfy my shooting addiction. These guys love shooting!!!

I have to wonder, If the Japanese society put half as much effort into making guns as they are in making cars, I can only dream of the interesting firearms they would come up with.

Oh ya, as for Doug McCarther making guns illegale for private people to own in Japan, Im not sure if this was a good or bad thing. My opinion is that "Imperial Japan" is still alive today, it just changed its name to "Industrial Japan" and the soldiers of Japan no longer die for their "Emperor", they now die for their "Company"
