    My new to me Arisaka with a twist

    So I bought what I think is a good representation of the WWII Type 99 rifle. With a full mum which is important to some and not to others and with all matching numbers. It is a Nagoya rifle from my little bit of research and the kicker is it has been converted to .30-06. I know the Korean War story about how some were converted and given to the South early in the War. This one lacks those marks but is still in full military dress. It's cool with me however it got that way as I consider it part of the history and mystery. What I would like to know is the series but that mark is very faint and if it is late enough in production that it should lack the missing parts such as cleaning rod, monopod, dust cover, and aircraft sight wings. Any help and opinions would be appreciated. I think it looks good compared to others that I have seen.
