Question Opinions of a Cooool Jap type 38

Gentlemen I just picked this up at the local flea market. Take a look and offer opinions please. I was told that "Dad brought this back in WWII after taking it off a Jap he killed" It appears to have a bullet hole through the stock near the wrist. Some poor sot lost his arm to give this up.

Here are pictures of a few more items. This time a couple of postcards that were amongst a big batch of paper items and documents that I managed to get hold of quite recently. I think I’ll just keep this thread as Postcards only and put up the documents in the other thread i started.
