These rifles were missing a lot of the design elements of the classic Type 99. As the Japanese ran low on resources and time they began to produce cruder rifles. It was made in the last years of the war and is in solid shape for its age. You are considering a vintage Japanese Arisaka Type 99 “Last Ditch” rifle that is chambered for 7.7x58mm Arisaka.

It comes as shown in pictures with the chrysanthemum intact. This was the first major battle in the Pacific theater, which would explain how an early and complete Type 99 was captured in this condition. We have a used Japanese Type 99 Arisaka bolt action rifle for sale. The stock unusually clean, and shows very little wear.Īn intact chrysanthemum usually indicates that a rifle was captured and not surrendered, and this one was allegedly picked up on Guadalcanal. The finish is largely intact with some light brown patina, the chrysanthemum is intact and the bore is clean and bright. It is also equipped with a dust cover, although this is not numbers matching. This Type 99 is still equipped with both monopod and an entirely intact anti aircraft sight, which is rather uncommon. This type of sight was soon deemed both fragile and useless, so just like the monopod it was discontinued a few years after its introduction. The practical problem is quite obvious: Once the soldier was done with all this, the aircraft would be long gone. He would then determine the aircraft’s speed, and use the “wings” on the sight for the appropriate lead. The idea was for the soldier to determine an enemy aircraft’s distance, and then adjust the elevation on the ladder type sight. This makes these monopods very difficult to find, and the few that come up for sale will usually bring $200-$250.Īnother new feature was the peculiar anti aircraft sight, unique to the Type 99. It proved to be near useless in regular combat and would often be discarded by the soldier carrying the rifle, so it was soon discontinued. The wire monopod was carried over from Type 97, which was the sniper version of Type 38.
