Arisaka Meiji 38

Description:

Historic rifle, as used by Japanese troops during the second world war, in as-issued condition, with dust cover. The barrel is thirty one inches long. This rifle must have been captured on the battlefield, as the chrysanthem emblem on the receiver is intact, not disfigured as surrendered rifles were. There is some pitting under the barrel, and the chamber is slightly oversized. If you want to shoot the rifle , I would recommend having a chamber cast done, to determine the exact size of the chamber
