I tend never to buy the story about a gun but, I would give some validity to this story. This was a vet bring back that the guy kept as a souvenir and did not fire it after bringing it home. His son had it for about 30 years and he did not shoot it also. The son sold it to a LGS and I bought it from the gunshop owner. He sold it to me for $295.00 and I did not haggle about the price. After cleaning the bore (see pics) it showed strong rifling and no pitting. I cleaned the bolt and oiled trigger and moving parts. I’ve got 50 rounds of brass, 150 grain bullets and some Lee dies. I have studied about making brass from 30.06 but that may come later. This is my first and only Arisakaicon rifle and it is interesting to find out about the history about these firearms.
