I *think* the top four are Japanese Arisakas…?
Then a Mauser sniper
A Swedish Llungghmauun (sorry can’t spell or pronounce that one)
MG42?
STG44
And the pistol is a P38
Ughhh… I am sucking swamp water this morn! Up here in Canada there weren’t ever too many Arasaka rifles around. I’ve read that they are actually good rifles and fun to shoot if you can find or make ammo for them. 7.7mm Jap? I’ve never seen ammo for them either… I dunno about that Llggkkkgakmunn either… I HAVE seen one or two of those… but that was a long time ago… and I think I missed the boat on that too!
How are your skills this morn? Can you get them all without googling…?

Not Ljungman- a G42 Mauser.
ReplyDeletePresently shooting a Lyungman, sold the G42 @ 5 years ago
ReplyDeleteThat is my read too. I have a couple of the arisakas in 6.5, I need to get them out and shoot the dust off of them. Steinel ammo has a lot of obscure military calibers available not cheap as it was in the past but available and noncorrosive.
ReplyDeleteFitty
They’d definitely be worth reloading for… being able to make your own ammo can be a boon for collectors dealing with obsolete and obscure calibres…
DeleteTop four Arisakas. Then a Mauser K98k, a Mauser G43, a MG42, Stg44, the pistol is the Walther P38, and the carpet could do with a clean.
ReplyDeleteThe Ljungman AJ42 has a funky sliding top cover with a wire case deflector and two knobs, and eats 6.5x55 Swedish.
No googgle or any other internet help.

Top 4 are Jap, the a K98 sniper. The semi isn't a Llungmann, it's a G43. Buddy of mine used to have a couple. The rest are easy.
ReplyDeleteAre G43’s any good TA? What’re they? 6.5x55?
DeleteI'll take the bottom two. Thank you.
ReplyDeleteThe Arisaka's seem to be in order of pre-war, early war and the 4th one late WW2 emergency builds. Caliber could be 6.5 to 7.7 Jap.
ReplyDeleteI know Lee and RCBS make dies for them so if a fella’s determined to shoot them, options are available…👍
DeleteI think the 4th one, is the paratrooper, takedown model.
DeleteFrom what I remember, 7.7 Jap rimmed was a down loaded .303.
