Hello to all,

Long time no see....how have you all been? 8^)

By the way, I am interested to know if German manufactured weapons such as the Mauser Kar98, MP-40, Luger, Walther P-38 blah...blah...were used by the other axis powers? namely Italy and Japan?

Ia m talking about weapons issued to the men and not captured German weapons ...

Thanks

* Alvin *

Dear Alvin, yes some italian units did use German weapons--especially some of the ones serving with the D.A.K. and on the Eastern Front.

Thanks Mr Evans,

How about the Japs? did they use them too? I am also interested in the uniforms of the Japanese army and just obtained a reproduction tropical tunic. Nice fit!

dear Alvin: Quite welcome. The Japaneese used their own weaponry. However, the Chinese used German Mausers, Lugers, stick grenades, and artillery.
