Comments by "Ken ibn Anak" (@kenibnanak5554) on "Japan's First Military Revolver: the S&W No.3" video.
Japan also inherited the S&W and S&W style clones the Spanish left behind in the Philippines when they surrendered it to America. We put the Spanish guns in storage there and later Japan got them. My point is the finding or capture of American S&W top breaks by GIs and Marines was not unusual as we took the different islands. Many were sent or brought back to America. Some Colts too. Japan used whatever they had available, especially after 1943 when their own manufacturing capability was not able to keep up with supply demands.
