return type without the nullable

if i have a class like:

class Test
{
public int? ANumber { get...set...}
}

and then, using refection i read all the properties of the class how can
i get the type of the property without the Nullable part.

the type of the property ANumber would be:

System.Nullable`1[System.Int32]

I only want the System.Int32 part. Am i left to parsing the string? I
was hoping for a property/method that would return just the primitive.

System.Type.GetGenericArguments should return it.
