Before WW2, Japan purchased tens of thousands of Mauser rifle from Germany, include Vz.24(Type Mo rifle I), Prewar Kar98k(Type Mo rifle II)and Mauser Standardmodell 1924(Type Mo rifle III).

Since Japan already have enough Br1 bolt action rifles, Vz 24 is definitely not necessary. In Br2, we only have Type 99 rifle, giving them Prewar 98k or Mauser Standardmodell 1924 would be a good option.

However, keep giving Japan copy-paste weapons would be quiet boring, so personally I prefer the Mauser Standardmodell 1924 as TT weapons, It’s basically a Prewar 98k with grasping grooves and straight bolt handle. It’s famous for it’s Chinese copy(Chiang Kai-shek rifle), which is already discuss in many other topics about Japanese bolt action rifles.

I think it’s better to give Japan the Mauser Standardmodell 1924 and leave Chiang Kai-shek rifle to the allies.

Do you want these weapons to be add as Japanese Br 2 TT weapons?

  • Yes, I want the Type Mo rifle II(Prewar Kar98k)
  • Yes, I want the Type Mo rifle III(Mauser Standardmodell 1924)
  • Yes, I want both to be added to TT
  • Nope

While you’re probably get some people in here crying about copypaste, I do think Japan’s tech tree needs more variety.

I think some more European rifles would be good for Japan for people who don’t like the tangent (triangle) sights of most JP rifles

The last thing Japanese needs is more BAs. Especially since it’s nothing more than classic copy-paste.
