Description
11/9/26 - Here is a matching Zero Series Nagoya Type 99 Arisaka with a full mum, chambered in 7.7x58. The rifle is in 85% condition and retains its original blued finish throughout, but there are numerous patches of surface corrosion and shallow pitting, and the barrel is browning slightly from age and oxidation. The stock is in good condition with numerous handling marks. The left side of the buttstock is carved "TAKEN IN THE BATTLE OF THE TENARU AUG 21, 1942" along with a carved Japanese character. The bore is an 8/10, bright with good rifling, but there are spots of corrosion at the muzzle. The receiver, bolt, firing pin, safety cap, extractor, and bayonet lug have matching numbers. The rifle has its original monopod. A matching, full mum Nagoya Zero Series Arisaka with a hand-carved Battle of the Tenaru inscription and its original monopod is a rifle with a story, and one that stands out from the usual Type 99.
