I have deleted an unsourced paragraph from this article which claimed that the well-known problem with the sear bar "may have been intentional" - a claim I've never heard outside this article. If you re-add this material, please give one or more references for it. Of course, the whole article is unreferenced at the moment, but that's a separate problem ...

I believe that the worry and stories over the transfer bar are greatly exagerated. To depress the bar far enough to release the hammer, you really have to push hard on a very small area that is already slightly depressed. It is not that easy, and the odds of it happening by randomly banging the pistol, or falling on it are very, very slim. I will agree that it is not that great of a design, but not nearly as bad as people who have never handled on might think.
I also do not agree with the idea that the round is under-powered. It is not as powerful as modern rounds, but in the early 20th century, cartridges in the .32 ACP class were considered to be more than adequate for an officer's handgun. -C. Racciato
Whether you agree or not, if you can't cite a source or back up your claims, it's your personal beliefs, not fact. As for being underpowered, the industrial ability of Japan was seriously crippled by the bombings of their factories. —Preceding unsigned comment added by 75.75.0.203 ( talk) 04:38, 23 October 2010 (UTC)

Comments: The article checks out pretty well for the prose, the mos and reflayout. It is made entirely of book sources that are reliable sources and I see no original research here. The article is pretty broad, but is there no information about the accuracy of the pistol? The lead also contains information not seen in the body of the article, including the number of pistols which is different in the infobox than in the lead. The ammo used is not discussed properly and some of the details are only mentioned in the infobox as a result. These issues need to be rectified to reach the GA criteria. Though there is also one sentence which I think the "This" should be "There was a" and a need for a comma in "This drastic change in quality from late March 1945, onwards with all standards appearing to disappear towards the end of June 1945." Also, could you please translate "TYPE94ERROR.JPG" because it is currently in Japanese. I don't think I have the skill yet to properly translate it myself. The article overall, is short and effective, but I'll place it on hold for fixes. ChrisGualtieri ( talk) 15:51, 15 January 2014 (UTC)
