Arisaka Type 99 – 7.7x58mm – Toyo Kogyo Arsenal Series 32 – Airplane Sights

This is a no-reserve penny auction for an Arisaka Type 99 bolt-action rifle in 7.7x58mm. Serial number- 21838. This rifle is in fantastic condition considering its age and it has a clean, shiny bore! This Series 32 features a Toyo Kogyo Arsenal stamp. This rifle has the original airplane sights (wings are missing)!

The Arisaka Type 99 was the standard issue of the Imperial Japanese military during the 2nd Sino-Japanese War and World War II. Rifles with the chrysanthemum intact are likely war trophies returned to the US by troops that fought in the Pacific War. Please ensure that you carefully examine all of the photos provided in order to accurately assess the condition of the rifle. Understand that many Arisakas were heavily used or made with lower quality control (See the last ditch rifles) so a rifle being in fantastic condition is more up to interpretation than other WWII firearms.
