The barrel should be chrome lined so it should be in pretty good condition. One thing you should have David check is if it still takes 7.7x58 Arisaka because many were converted to fire .30-06.(05-19-2015, 09:01 AM)AcilletaM Wrote: I'm curious about it and what research you did as well. My recommendation is to bring it to a gunsmith for a thorough inspection. After the Japanese surrendered many US soldiers brought home unfired last ditch Arisakas that should not be fired.
that is exactly what i found out through my research on it and why i have been scared to shoot it, not to mention i have only seen the bullets manufactured through norma at 50 bucks a box. it has the chrysanthemum and air plane sites on it, so i thought that was neat. but from what i see it has no value other than personal value
$50 for the 7.7 ammo is on the low end of prices I've seen.
i have the cleaning rod and sling with it, was thinking about using ebay to fill the rest. and it is in very good shape, the wood is as well, not cracks or gouges, the metal looks new. and i did not know that about the 30-06 i will look in to that thanks.
