JAPANESE MILITARY Type 2 Paratrooper 7.7X58MM ARISAKA
Description:
Guns Listing ID: 538427
The TERA rifles (Japanese: ???????/???????, romanized: Teishin Rakkasan Shoujuu) were special Japanese takedown rifles developed for paratroopers of the Imperial Japanese Army and Imperial Japanese Navy. All designs were capable of either being broken down or folded into two parts and easily assembled or disassembled.
While we do have the attached bayonet for this rifle the Chrysanthemum Seal was ground off the receiver.
Overall though the rifle is in good condition.
Type 2 Similar to the Type 100 rifle, the barrel and receiver are joined together by a tapered wedge instead of the interrupted screw.[2] The paratrooper used a folding wire ring to tighten the wedge lock. A detachable bolt handle and folding bayonet were tested, but ultimately rejected.[4] Most rifles were fitted with the anti-aircraft rear sights of the Type 99 rifle, despite their questionable effectiveness.[5]
The Type 2 was carried broken-down either in a canvas chest bag or with each halves in two leg bags. These were lowered on a short rope after the parachute opened
