Type 11 Nambu Light Machine Gun.
“The only advantage the hopper oiled arrangement gave was a vast amount
of metal in front of the gunner while he sighted the weapon. I know of
one case where a Japanese gunner…..was fighting a fifty yard head on
dual…..an inspection later showed that [he] would have [died] very early
in that ten minute affair if he had not had that heavy bullet deflecting
hopper and oil reservoir in front of him.” J.G.-SFIA

Nambu’s firm Nambu-Ju Seizosho K.K. A second style would appear in 1944
and adopted as Type 100/2. Although the army jealously guarded their
