Japanese Assault rifle?!
Just wondering if anyone could answer this. Towards the end of the film, as the Japanese soldiers are storming the island, one of them is carrying and then fires what appears to be a assault rifle that looks very much like a German Sturmgewehr 44. I find this odd being that type of weapon wasn't even available till 1943 at the very earliest. Anyone know what it really is, and why it looks so much like a more modern day assault rifle?
