All matching Type 99 Arisaka with mum. Still has the monopod, AA sights, and number matching dust cover. Very fun shooter and what forced me into reloading to keep her fed. Based on the the markings, it was made in the first year of production Series 20 Kokura, I also bought a matching MFG bayonet to pair with it. Only issue is that a previous owner bleached the stock, but I don't personally mind, it's still the original stock and might have needed retouching.

Nice, I have a few Arisakas including one my uncle captured in New Guinea, a T38, PAX

Nice set of features! I really like the Type 99s.

Too bad about the stock. At least he didn’t take the belt sander to it

Thats the best damn shape 99 I have seen in a long time. Is the mum intact? The 99's are still fairly cheap, cheaper than I see beat up Carcanos go for. Last Ditch and training rifles tend to go for under $300 and quite lower sometimes but not in the shape of yours. I recently saw a Type 44 carbine. I may jump on that. I would also love one of the paratroop rifles.

Yes, it has a very clear mum without any hint of damage to it.
