Arisaka Type 38 Cal: 6.5mm SN: 15993
Non-functioning blued bolt-action WWII Japanese military rifle with a 26" barrel, hinged floorplate, spliced wood stock and wood buttplate. The action is locked up. The bolt will not turn or retract and it is too short for the receiver (you can see a locking lug in the ejection port when the bolt handle is against the rear bridge). How they got it in there is a mystery. Chrysanthemum has been ground off. Made in Tokyo Kogyo arsenal. Metal finish is dirty with dings and freckles of surface rust. Bore is filthy with worn rifling remaining. Wood is refinished with many dings, dents, gouges and a tiny chip missing from in front of the bolt stop. Condition is poor. *Modern Firearm*
