anyone else wish that japan wasnt so cucked with firearms so you could see what neato designs they would come up with and export?
I wish I could get guns from every country, including Japan.

I want a type 64 so badly that can handle NATO standard 7.62x51mm
>>30250955
Yes. It would do Japan good if they could export since howa 89's cost $3,500 to make and minibea pm9's cost ~$6,500
>>30250955
dont they make winchesters? tikkas?
Only reason people want them is the "cant have" factor.

It can handle full power ammo. The reduced recoil loads are because they're are 90lbs.

It can, however, the full loads eat out the barrel faster
>>30250955
Yes, very much so.

You could say the same thing about .223 vs 5.56. In reality it's a non issue and it's most likely just the Japanese being anal retentive.
Their quoted specs for muzzle velocity are only ~100fps slower than comparable 7.62 NATO. This falls in line with their 10% claim.
Not really, especially with the US import laws. Don't have much interest in fixing or neutered "spotter" or having some company do it for me.
>>30251850
dude, that goes for any hotter ammo
>>30250955
>bipod fixed to the barrel
Are they stuck in a time warp where that is still a good thing?
