    That’s absolutely awesome ....but you mean a rifle that you “used” to have

    If it don’t bother me, it don’t bother me. Just leave me alone.

    @Vision whats the back story on that? How did you come to possess it? A family member bring it back? Love WW2 history.

    Unfortunately nothing amazing. My father was at a yard sale in New Hampshire and noticed a rifle in the garage. It was a Type 38 (I believe) with the bayonet attached. My dad asked how much and gave the guy $100 for both. With my dad not having his license we gave the rifle to a friend who does. He registered it and sold it for $250. My dad got his $100 back and I kept the bayonet. I have a few KAR98 bayonets and other WW1 WW2 artifacts laying around.

    Edit: spelling

    Also… the Imperial Seal was ground off the gun.

    Most surviving arisakas had the imperial seal ground off. Part of the surrender deal with Japan.
