Type 92

Type 92 with 97-round magazine - 7.7x58mm Arisaka
Japanese watercooled Type 92 - 7.7x58mm R Arisaka

The Type 92 is a Japanese made clone of the Lewis Gun and were issued to the Imperial Japanese Navy to be mounted on IJN planes during the early parts of World War II. In combat however, the Type 92 was considered inadequate compared to the Type 1 and Type 2 machine guns and the Type 99 cannon. The weapon was also never modified for another caliber thanks to 7.7x58mm Arisaka and .303 British ammunition being extremely identical to each other. Differences between the Type 92 and the Lewis Gun are the flexible mount and distinctive trigger guard.
