Had some years ago ,and bought two recently .one is a type 38 Carbine, but has been cut down ,the fellow I bought it from, told me the barrel was perfect ,when I got it and looked down the barrel its perfectly HAD IT !!! One I had years ago, used to send bullets through the target sideways ,then one day had one shot out of it, and two holes appeared in the target ! one was a round hole ,the other was a piece of the jacket embedded in the paper !
