Type 92
The Type 92 is a Japanese derivative of the Lewis Gun and was equipped as a defensive weapon on Imperial Japanese Navy 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. As with the Navy's Type 97 machine gun and the previously mentioned Type 1, the Type 92 remained chambered for (Japanese-produced varieties of) .303 British (7.7x56mmR). The most distinctive visual difference compared to the original Lewis Gun is the enlarged trigger guard.
