Default Re: OT: Nambu's

Hi Doug! Nambu's are a strange animal to say the least! I had one that I bought at an auction of WW2 vet...it was still in the original grease and the safty had never been rotated...by the end of the auction, after it had been handled a hundred times or more, the thing looked like it had been fired a thousand times, and fought the whole war by it's self!!....when I finally sold it, we took it apart to check the numbers, and the firing pin tip was broke, it had never been fired! I had another one where someone had pryed on the trigger assembly and it was just barely loose.....the disconnector wouldn't work, and the parts weren't/aren't interchangable!! I would prefer radoms to nambus, but that is just my opinion! till...later....G.T.
