Cartridge Extracting Tool

[BOUGAINVILLE]

Here is a tool for extracting jammed cartridges from the Type 92 Heavy Machine gun made by the Kokura Army Arsenal.

Have found some illustrations from in 2 IJA manuals detailing it and its use.

These manuals are;

九二式重機関銃教育ノ詳解 Type 92 Heavy Machine Gun Education Techno Explanation Manual (1940)

and

機関銃歩兵砲射撃教範 Machine Gun Infantry Firing Manual

I like it when everything ties together with not just the item but also the information and illustrations of it's use.

Cheers,
Robert
