A guy came into this weekends gun show with a few photos of a rifle he had at home, just a typical type 38 but had been sporterized with stock cut back to use as a hunting rifle. Very crisp stamp in stock,,,,what do we have here guys?

Looks like a fantasy carving to me. Kanji does not look correct.

Paul is correct: FANTASY!
Though, it looks like whomever it was was attempting the following kanji:
Top:
抜
Middle: ???? that middle one is TOTALLY made-up! Or, he really mangled this:
練
Bottom:
用
抜練用 Doesn't make sense .... 抜 Remove/Omit - 練 Training/Practice - 用 Use. Maybe he just tried to copy some kanji?

Rifle
Vet was in the Navy so it may have been carved up to make it more appealing at time it was purchasedComment
