This was a 6.5 mm rifle, with a shortened barrel and stock Rifle in April of 1945, the Type 38 Experimental. Imagine the ChiCom rifle from the Vietnam era, with the folding bayonet, The stock, and sits in a groove in the forestock. Rifle had a permanently attached folding spike bayonet, the type that fold under The model 99 was a 7.7 mm, 50.25” long Type 99 with the turned downīolt, monopod, and 2.5x scope left mounted.Ĭhambered for a 6.5 mm cartridge, and looked exactly like the Type 38 carbine Model/Type 38, 6.5 mm, 50.25” long, with a wire monopod on the front, a turnedĭown bolt, and a left mounted 2.5x telescope. Two types of sniper rifles were made, a Model 97 and a Model Soldiers traded/stole to get the coveted 44” version, or even the 38”.Īt the Japanese Sniper rifle and some experimental/later war models. However, shorter version were highly sought after by the Jungle troops,Īs hauling 4 feet of rifle (and another two feet of bayonet!) through the jungle Were the most often issued rifles of the war. The effectiveness of the wire device was less than expected in the Were the monopod was torn off by the owner and disregarded.
the monopod does too, but I have seen lots of pictures of Type 99’s In their Japanese Set is a Model/Type 38, 6.5 mm Ariska (the sling gives itĪway. Type 99 had a wire “monopod” (actually, a simple wire bipod) mounted underĮither the Front retaining band or the Mid retaining band, and the slingĪttached to the SIDE of the buttstock, not the underneath. The rifle that is claimed to be the Type 99. Known that I could find, BUT, there are pictures of a pretty short version of Rechambered for the 7.7 mm cartridge, so no short version of the Type 99 is It was made in two lengths, a long (50.25”) and short (44.25”) This became the Type 99 (model 99) Arisaka. They rechambered the type 38 to accept the 7.7 mm cartridge. Later, the Japanese needed a higher power cartridge, and These rifles is the length of the barrel and forestock. It was manufactured originally in 3 lengths: 50.25”, 44.25”, and Mm Arisaka (mauser inspired) bolt action rifle. This model was phased out prior to WWII, and replaced by the Type 38 No 1/6 th scale company makes a type 30 that I am aware of. The Type 30 was created in 1897, and was a near copy of the mauser. Let’s go back to the beginning: The basic Japanese Army rifle was built from the Mauser All information was garnered from accurate resources, pictures, referenceĪre lots of areas where this info could be wrong, but I tried to only take the Model 38 and Type 38 are the same weapon. Some notes and claims: Model and Type are interchangeable in this discourse. At least then, you can have some variety. With the basic 21C Arisaka, razor saw, and glue. I also discovered that you can make your own versions of most Japanese Rifles With, and uncovered a lot of information about the Arisaka that might be of Having troubles telling the Japanese Rifles apart? Didn’t know they had more than one type? Bored with your troops all carrying only 1 Arisaka rifle?ĭid some research to find out what other weapons I could outfit my soldiers
