After the Meiji Restoration, what color was Japanese equipment, such as carriages, cannons, and machine guns? My brief research has shown medium grey to dark grey, but I wanted to double check with sources I trust (meaning y'all.) Thank you in advance. |

This is eerie. I was looking through some unbuilt kits yesterday and thinking the same thing |

I think the medium gray is correct. There seems to be a paucity of information. I even emailed Taki once, and he couldn't track it down, either. He is a good source for weapon statistics, though. www3.plala.or.jp/takihome |

IIRC from a wandering of the Yasukuni museum, gun carriages were light gray, and guns were black/dark gray. |
