Guns Listing ID: 596794



The Type 99 rifle or Type 99 carbine was a bolt-action rifle of the Arisaka design used by the Imperial Japanese Army during World War II.

26\" barrel, 5+1 internal box magazine, bayonet.

During the Second Sino-Japanese War in the 1930s, the Japanese Army found that the 7.7mm cartridge being fired by the Type 92 heavy machine gun in China was superior to the 6.5×50mm cartridge of the Type 38 rifle. This necessitated the development of a new weapon to replace the outclassed Type 38, and finally standardize on a single rifle cartridge.[3] The Imperial Japanese Army (IJA) developed the Type 99 based on the Type 38 rifle but with a caliber of 7.7mm. The Type 99 was produced at nine different arsenals.

Seven arsenals were located in Japan, with the other two located at Mukden in Manchukuo and Jinsen in Korea.

As the war progressed, more and more cost saving steps were introduced in order to speed up production. Late war rifles are often called \"last ditch\" or \"substitute standard\" due to their crudeness of finish. They are generally as crude as the 1945 dated Mauser K98k of Germany, or worse.

The Type 99 was produced in four versions, the regular issue Type 99 carbine, the Type 99 long rifle (a limited production variant), the take-down Type 2 paratroop rifle, and the Type 99 sniper rifle. The standard rifle also came with a wire monopod and an anti-aircraft sighting device. The Type 99 was the first mass-produced infantry rifle to have a chrome lined bore to ease cleaning. All of these features were abandoned by mid-war.
