I cant read kanji, but that is a naval trainer.
Matching is better than mum any day. I like the late butt splice with the distinct wood colors. I need one like this, maybe with a rope hole.
The reciever on the Naval special rifle being made of cast iron ( along with other parts ie barrel bands, rear sight) is well documented. My ns t99 has all these features. The 7.7x56 cartridge was...
The bolt looks correct for your rifle, it being a very early example. Look on the rifle for the number 467 anywhere else. Parts on these were mat hed by assembly number not serial.
Unfortunatly the cleaning rod and monopod for the Nagoya zero series are unique along with the Toyo Kogo long rifles. The rod is longer as is the monopod than the later series t99s. But having a...
That is a nice example and the paint on the metal (they were painted, not blued) looks strong. Would like to see the bolt, is ithe handle cylindrical or egg shaped? I have a late version with a bolt...
If that is the original stock that has been cut down it should have had the full length top handgaurd. The rear barrel band would have no provision for a monopod. As for a cleaning rod IF it had one...
Liberty Tree has one mid war t99 stock right now that looks about right, but there are no pics of the stamp u der the stock wrist to see if it is a Nagoya stock or not. They also have top handgaurds...
If you keep just one make sure its this one. Only about 8000 made, a lot less than that matching with mum.
Thats what my first Arisaka was. Nice to start out with uncommon one!
The bayonet with the hooked quilion is a Kokura (tokyo arsenal) and is a good match for the T38 rifle. The other is a Toyada Loomworks made example, late war and will go well with your Substitude...
Ok, thanks!
Next week I will have a Naval bayonet to go with my Navy Special t99. I will post a thread then if pics arent too difficult to put up.
Of all the Japanese items I have an original sling is still not one of them. That is a nice and complete set!
