yet again my fiend jerry has managed to get a very rare japanese rifle in the states....

"its what is called an "emergency use" T-99 rifle. they were produced (a)t the end of the war and never had a mum. they had a symbol on the receiver where the mum would be that says "emergency use". these are the true last ditch T-99 rifles. thought to be part of the "use a gun, get a gun" program. shoot your enemy with the emergency rifle, then steal and use his rifle. not many were made, and even fewer survived. one of the biggest differences in this rifle is the use of a sheet metal bolt stop, no DC grooves, etc. a truly rare rifle.

arisaka websites...

Hi all,
can anyone direct this ol' boy to a smashing web site on Arisaka
WW 2 website that goes into detailed information on the speciment?

Thanks in advanced.
 
OK here it goes....

Why did the Japs have the TANGS off the action? The top one is seperate
but the lower one is part of the trigger assembly.
 
Well, for starters, the tang on top of the action has nothing to do with securing the action to the wood. It secures the same as a mauser - with action screws through the bottom metal and into the receiver. The top tang is more to prevent abuse to the stock from working the bolt in adverse conditions, and to try to prevent cracking at the wrist of the stock since the japanese stock wood is not particularly strong.
 
Claven,
I don't agree with what you're saying. No offense... I hope.
There's got to be another reason... thanks for your response.. if your you're right
I will apologize.
