I picked this one up. I am pretty sure it is a Japanese trainer but not one I have ever seen. Pictures with a type 97 for size and comparison. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks142.jpg148.jpg143.jpg144.jpg145.jpg146.jpg147.jpg
 
Curious, why are you certain that it is a trainer?
 
Really I'm not certain. I could have been a live one? But not a style I have ever seen. May not even be Japanese, perhaps Chinese??? One fellow collector thinks it maybe Chinese as they copied a lot of the Japanese items.
