Someone on a Japanese rifle forum identified this as a type 99, but said that based on the series, there are many rifles made later in the war that fire just fine. So, maybe I'll be shooting a combat rifle sometime in the relatively near future.
I need a gunsmith in the Lancaster County area to check this out for me and let me know if it's intact and safe. any ideas? |
Yep, that clearly reads "Type 99"
Now get yourself a box or two 7.7mm and bring ito life.
