In 2019, two guys walking along a beach in Taiwan, which was once belonged to Japanese colony from 1895-1945, accidentally found an abandoned air rifle.

They called the police, the initial inspect of this rifle was Japanese made and seemed to have lost it's power plant. the rifle might be deliberately thrown away by family members when the owner passed away.
In Taiwan, air rifles that shoot over 3 joules would be seen as weapons, of which law is extremely strict and unfair with target shooting lovers. Polices always get great rewards when they tract down someone who owns illegal air rifles. the rewards are exactly the same with which they track down rim fire weapons.
What a jealous find! what a collectible piece! and what a shame!
