This review details the Smith & Wesson Model 37-2 and 360J revolvers used by the Japanese National Police. It contrasts their adoption with earlier firearms like the New Nambu Model 60 and SIG P230, highlighting Japan's preference for moderate, secure sidearms. The video also covers specific technical details, security features like lanyards and holsters, and minor issues encountered with the 360J.
The Sig P230JP was a specialized variant of the P230 designed for the Japanese Police, chambered in .32 ACP with a 7-round capacity. It featured a manual safety and lanyard loop, distinct from the standard P230. Despite its intended role, it was considered underpowered and complex, eventually being replaced by S&W revolvers. Surplus P230JPs were later imported to the US commercial market.
This YouTube video focuses on the German Mauser HSc pistol, a firearm from World War 2. The description draws a parallel between the HSc and the modern Sig P230, suggesting a lineage or comparison between the two handguns. The video includes existing hashtags related to shooting activities like "shooting", "plinking", and "targetshooting."
The British L66A1, a .22 LR variant of the Walther PP, was issued to the Ulster Defence Regiment for off-duty carry. Approximately 3,000 units were procured in 1974. These pistols feature German military proofs and were later refurbished with Suncorite finish and improved firing pins. Many entered the US surplus market in the 1990s after being replaced by the Walther P5 Compact and SIG P230.
