CSB. Bought a shotgun in Japan back in ’96 in Yamaguchi Prefecture (MCAS Iwakuni Rod and Gun Club). Officials there were pretty good about letting “gaijiins” take the gun safety and hunting safety courses, even translated into Engrish. The problem was Hiroshima Prefecture across the bay where I was stationed with the 83d Ordnance Battalion. Long memories there. No ‘muricans hunting there. Period. That New-SKB Model 585 o/u 12 gauge spent four years in an arms room, getting inventoried (and wiped down)once a month until I PCSed.
