A survey of important (JAPANESE) private sector ammunition works, post WW2 U.S. Occupation- http://dl.ndl.go.jp/info:ndljp/pid/8818407

A document written in Japanese with hand written translation into English concerning ammunition production at private facilities in Japan during WW2. Some of the pages mention types of ammunition and other items produced at the facilities. For the pages listing factory/firm/works, the name is written in the left hand column. Be forewarned it is a bit hard to read and the page image usually has to be enlarged in order to read the notes in English.
