Matsudaira Kiyoyasu Another version of Matsudaira Kiyoyasu ' s death has been told by the author A . L . Sadler : " Kiyoyasu , the son of Nobutada , was a fine soldier , and his friendship was solicited both by Takeda Nobutora , father of the great Shingen , and also by Oda Nobuo mitsu , uncle of the more famous Nobunaga . Oda later made secret overtures to the effect that if Kiyoyasu attacked his province he would be on his side , his intention being to oust his elder brother Nobuhide , the head of the clan . So Kiyoyasu set out against this province . But his wicked uncle Nobusada , seeing an opportunity , sent to Nobuhide to say that he was about to take the Castle of Anjo , the headquarters of Kiyoyasu , from which he had set out . When Kiyoyasu heard of this he was naturally very troubled at the possibility of his base being taken behind his back , and he was rendered more so by another rumour started by someone that his most faithful retainer Abe Sadayoshi was also in league with his uncle . Abe Sadayoshi was very indignant when he heard this slander , and called his son Yashichi , telling him that it was false , and would be proved so if proper examination was made . But if this was not done , and he was put to death on suspicion , he impressed on him the need of his continuing to serve their lord faithfully as if nothing had happened . Just after this Sadayoshi ' s horse began to be restless and kick out , and there was some confusion , and Kiyoyasu came out and gave orders to catch it and tie it up . Hearing the noise , Yashichi at once concluded that his father was being arrested and was in danger , and without more Ado rushed out on the spur of the moment without any reflection and cut Kiyoyasu down . He was at once killed himself , but that did not save Kiyoyasu , who was only twenty - five . But he was not without an heir , his son Hirotada being ten years old . The army of Kiyoyasu had to retire immediately he was killed , and it was Sadayoshi who took charge of his son , for the charge of treason seems to have been quickly shown to be false , and he was trusted as before .

The 12 . 17 x 44 mm rim fire cartridge is placed backwards , facing the shooter , before everything is rolled back forward . The only part to be modified was the chamber and a curving firing pin was added where the nipple for the cap had been . Pictures showing the Landmark conversion can be found here
