My newest; 10th Series Nagoya Last Ditch T99

Just popped into my local gun supplier's place after physical therapy today. Amazing stuff that walks through the door; I thought I would do the economy a favor and help the retiree who walked in the shop with this Nagoya Series 10 Last Ditch T-99 Arisaka. Other then someone "un-staking" the screws and the mum being defaced, this gun looks like it left the factory last year instead of 65+ years ago. I'll post a few teaser photos; and then a link to the rest of them. I broke down the bolt; the frame, extractor, firing pin, and bolt all match...not a bad deal for a "C" Note...

Nice. Like you said it looks unissued.

Very nice looking late war rifle.

Nice I am looking to get one and have located one. Its a 10 or 11,I have to see.

Maybe the nicest looking 10th series around, congrats.

Very nice, clean rifle. On of the best I have ever seen. Congratulations on the great find!

I have the same rifle had grease in mag well. 100%cond. I have seen many that were were taken new out of the crate and and passed out to G.I.s ,Navy men to take home. And many never used when taken home. I have seen 4 last ditch brought with numbers close to the same in new cond. they are comman.

Don't think I have ever seen a nicer one. riceone
