Arisaka type 99 7.7mm Jap. Nagoya Arsenal with matching serial numbers. No mum. This rifle has been sportized, and can not be returned to original miltary condition. New sights front and rear. The bolt handle is a plum style and the safety artfully gnarled which shows that this was an early rilfe. Note though it was sportized it was nicely done. The stock is walnut and very nice, with pistol grip, a well made comb, and shock absorber butt plate. The upper wooden hand guard is gone. But, the barrel has great rifling and is very shiny. The rifle’s bolt matches the receiver. Because of this I believe it would be a great shooter and 7.7mm is a nice round for hunting in North America. Ammo is not cheap, but, there are more and more companies making obsolete ammunition for older guns like this.

The Arisaka action is still considered one of the simplest and robust actions of WWII. I truly enjoy collecting older guns that I do not shoot, but this is one I would shoot and shoot a lot. You could get the feel of what a Japanese trooper carried and fired in WWII. Or, with the right ammo,you could just go hunting with it. Thanks for looking.
