The Hino-Komuro M1904(日野式自動小銃) we know is a fake gun

Is the New York Daily News report from another weapon made by Hino? It seems to have no relation to the 1904 rifle.

I think so, pretty sure Hino continued to work on SLRs even into the 40s as seen with that one patent.

@NonNational

Also, did the Japanese Minister of War reject the American request?

Sadly don’t know, but I’d guess so or otherwise we’d probably have something in that regard documented on the US side

Hello James and McDonalds, I know developers have put a lot of work into the Hino rifle, and they are unlikely to abandon those efforts for reasons of historical accuracy.
What I hope is, when Hino rifle was released, can developers explain in the weapon description that the Hino rifle in game is based on imagination and we currently know very little about this weapon?

This is a more acceptable suggestion. Of course, if developers eventually decide to cancel the release of Hino rifle, I will be very grateful too.

@James_Grove If you can, you can change it to this Nambu-style semi-automatic rifle, and the room can be changed to a BR2

Decision is now to make more accurate name in the game on that rifle.

Any plan about weapon description?
