    Picked up this uncommon Chinese six five rifle, unfortunately it was ground for some reason and the stock is cracked. Also has the "window" mark before the serial number.

    That's pretty cool. I know very little about Asian C&R stuff but I don't think I've seen one of these before.

    Isn't that a school "chop" on the stock?

    Could be I have not had it translated. These came in mostly with the last Chinese imports and the Chinese abused a lot of them like the Mausers.

    Here is some info I found on them:

    "Chinese copy of the Japanese Type 38 at the Taiyuan Arsenal in the very late 1920s to early 1930s for the warlord of Shansi province, General Yen Hsi-shan. The receiver is marked 六五步槍 or "six-five rifle". Estimated to have been 108,000 made."
