$1,800.00
Out of stock
This is a very rare Japanese type 99 rifle with a two concentric circle crest. This indicates issue to a Non-military Institution of the Japanese Government. Organizations that this rifle was issued to could have been the Police or Prison Guards or some possibly the Railroads. This is a mint condition example and is very unusual as THE RIFLE HAS NO SERIAL NUMBERS ON THE RECEIVER, THE BOLT OR THE BAYONET LUG. The stock cartouche does bear a clue to the rifles manufacturer, it is very deeply stuck and hard to read but I think it is a Nagoya inspection Stamp. While I have seen some mis matched and ratty looking examples of this very rare rifle this is hand down the finest example that we have come across. This is a very well known and highly sought after type 99 variant for serious collectors and you will not find a better example of this very scarce rifle.
