The rifle is about 50 ½ inches long, the peep/ladder sight is graduated from 3 to 17 (no wing extensions) and the front sight is a single blade.ĬASTLE-THUNDER.COM Rifles - Back to Main Page The only markings I’ve found are ‘30’ near where the serial number should be and 579 on the stock.Then it sat in the safe for years but now I am curious to know the date of manufacture. My wife bought me this Nagoya Arisaka Type 99 for my birthday several years ago and I have done some internet research on the rifle. Their serial numbers completely baffle me. For the life of me, I cannot figure out the manufacture dates on Japanese rifles.Kokura manufactured series 20’s from 1939 - 1945 and produced 100,000 series 20’s. From what I have been able to determine, it is a series 20 made in the Kokura arsenal.
I own a Type 99 that my father-in-law brought home from WWII.
