This rifle was made at Tokyo Arsenal After 1911 and before 1933. This rifle was a bring back from either the pacific theater in WW2 or during the occupation of Japan. The condition of this rifle is incredible for its age. The only defects are minor dings and surface rust spots. I have shot this rifle 20 times and had no issues.
