Its hard to say. I don't know the internals very well. I will have to look at a schematic and become familiar with it.
This isn't really a problem per se, more of an annoyance, but the ejector on my Winchester M1917 has a tendency to just pop the fifth round out of the magazine after I extract the spent fourth round...
Not unless I absolutely have to. I know they are complex.
How often do type 30 rifles pop up on the collector market and what are some possible prices for examples in good condition? Good meaning most of the finish still present and the stock not being...
Would Swedish Mauser stripper clips work with the type 38? I bought them for my M1917 rifle as they work well with .30-06 rounds. Considering they were designed for a 6.5mm cartridge as well, why...
To a degree. The safety knob from the Mukden will fit on the bolt from my Koshikawa sporter, but it will not engage. I think this has something to do with the dimensions of the protrusion on the...
I have discovered something ever so curious. My sporter 38 is a Koshikawa with the large protrusion type safety. My mil-spec is a Mukden which all had the small protrusion. On a whim, I installed the...
Having disassembled and reassembled the bolt on my sporterized Arisaka type 38, it locks up perfectly. The numbers have been ground off or otherwise worn away so there is no way for me to tell if the...
No burrs, nothing impeding the operation of any sort. Spring is 4.01 inches long, and is undamaged. Timing is all correct. Still, the bolt will not lock up. I am at a loss too. I do not want to...
No, there is no half cock. That much is true for almost every bolt action rifle. What he means is that the cocking piece or spring is hanging up on something.
I haven't had a chance to try those...
I was talking with a friend about this issue today and he and I both came to the conclusion that if it worked before, I am following the correct procedure for disassembly and reassembly, and if it is...
Like I have said, I have checked the bolt several and the knob several times. The numbers match.
Hi there. I have verified that the bolt and safety knob are numbers matching with the receiver.
If you look at the photos below, I am assembling the bolt correctly, unless there is something I missed? Then there is a picture with the safety off, the safety on, and the bolt handle lifting with...
Disassembled and reassembled it several times correctly. Safety still does not fully engage.

Hello. I was making myself familiar with my Mukden type 38 rifle, and after stripping and reassembling the bolt as per the instructions in the Arms and Militaria handbook (Skennerton), I noticed...
