Type 44 Cavalry Rifle : ウィキペディア英語版 | Type 44 carbine
The Type 44 Cavalry Rifle (四四式騎銃''Yonyon-shiki kijū'' or ''Yonjūyon-shiki kijū'') is a Japanese bolt-action rifle. This rifle is also often referred to as a Type 44 Carbine. == History and development == Developed from the Type 38 carbine to provide a cavalryman a carbine with a bayonet and not be encumbered with weapons as before the trooper was required to have a Type 32 cavalry saber, a Type 38 carbine and a bayonet.〔Allan and Macy. p.313〕 It entered production in 1911 and entered service in 1912 (the 44th year of the Meiji period, hence "Type 44"), and served on until the end of the Second World War in 1945, production of the rifle ran until three years prior to the end of the Second World War; 1942. Approximately 91,900 Type 44 rifles were produced by Japanese arsenals during these years.〔Allan and Macy. p.313〕 Although it was intended for cavalry troops, many other units such as transportation units were issued these carbines〔Allan and Macy. p.316〕 and some cavalry troops continued to use the Type 38 carbine.〔Allan and Macy. p.241〕 After the war, the Type 44 continued to be used by the Chinese People's Liberation Army and Navy.〔Allan and Macy. p.315〕
