  World War II Guns - Arisaka
The Arisaka rifles are named after Colonel Nariakira Arisaka, an officer responsible for development of replacement rifle for Japanese military in early 20th century.
In this particular Arisaka rifle the Type 38 model designation (which is replicated in this airsoft replica) refers to the 38th year of the reign of Emperor Meiji (in Western time the year 1905, hence M1905).
Arisaka Type 99 was a replacement for the Arisaka Type 38, which cartridge was deemed insufficient in lethality.

  Markings on Japanese Arisaka Rifles and Bayonets of World War II
Nariakira Arisaka, who headed a commission during the 1890s which was charged with developing a new rifle to replace the earlier models such as the Murata.
The Arisaka rifles were designated with the year of the current emperor's reign.
Thus, the Type 38 rifle was designed in the 38th year of the reign of Emperor Meiji (1905), and the Type 44 carbine was adopted in the 44th year of his reign (1911).

Arisaka Rifle (有坂銃 Arisaka-jū) is a family of Japanese military bolt-action rifles, in production from approximately 1898 until the end of World War II in 1945.
The Arisaka Rifle was designed by Colonel Nariakira Arisaka (有坂 成章; 1852 - 1915), who was later promoted to Lieutenant General and also received the title of baron from Emperor Meiji, in 1907.
Many captured Arisaka rifles were employed by neighboring countries both during and after World War II, in places such as China, Thailand and Cambodia.

 Modern Firearms - Arisaka Type 38 and Type 99 rifle
The Arisaka Type 38 rifle was heavily influenced by contemporary Mauser designs, but also had some unique features.
Arisaka Type 38 and, especially, Type 99 rifles are generally quoted as very strong rifles, but this refers only to the rifles, made before the late stages of the World war 2.
One specific feature of Arisaka rifles was the sliding bolt cover, which protected the receiver openings from harsh pacific climate, and reciprocated along with the bolt.

The Arisaka design of bolt-action rifle remained standard issue for the Imperial Japanese Army from the turn of the century till after the Second World War.
Based on the Mauser action, the Arisaka was accurate but the addition of a metal dust cover over the bolt made operation noisy and prone to clogging.
The Arisaka was built unusually long, especially considering the average stature of Japanese troops and the tight jungle terrain they would fight in during the war; however, this long length also left the rifle with virtually no recoil.

Colonel Nariakira Arisaka headed a commission during the 1890s which was charged with developing a new rifle to replace the earlier models such as the Murata.

They were loaded with 5-round stripper clips, a flat metal piece holding a five-round stack, which was inserted at the top of the magazine, the rounds thumbed down into position, and the metal piece sent flying when the bolt was closed.

 Japanese Battle Rifles
These retained their 6.5mm Arisaka chambering, but were given the British nomenclature of "Rifle, Magazine,.256 Caliber, Pattern 1907" (or simply the M-1907).
Notes: The Sino-Japanese war in the early 1930s made the Japanese believe that the 6.5mm Arisaka round they were using in their rifles was not powerful enough for their purposes.
They thus designed a new rifle based on the 7.7mm semi-rimmed cartridge developed for their Type 92 machinegun; the round was modified slightly for use in a bolt-action rifle, which they called the Type 99 (also known as the Type 99 No. 1, or Type 99 Long Rifle).

 [No title]
However, the small caliber was necessary due to the inability of Japanese industry to produce the high-grade steel needed for rifle barrels capable of sustaining the stress put upon them by larger caliber bullets.
But even this reduction of caliber was not enough to sufficiently reduce the stress on the gun's low-quality parts, so Arisaka also had to give the rifle a very long barrel, just over 79cm in fact.
There was an attempt to replace this outdated 6.5mm calibre weapon with the newer Model 99 in the 7.7mm calibre already employed by the Model 92 machine gun; but it was never completed, and the confusion of calibres made for logistic difficulties.

Posted - 07/17/2004 : 11:01:26 PM Most of the British Arisakas were forwarded on to the Russians around 1917 and were never in the civilian gun trade which would have required British proofing.
As I said, most of the British Arisakas went on to Russia before the end of WWI and there seems to almost always be an Imperial Russian connection with them.
In the early twenties the Japanese government were concerned that Arisakas were reaching Chinese war lords and the British Foreign Office confirmed that these were not from the UK.

The 7.7x58mm Arisaka cartridge was chambered in the World War II Arisaka Type 99 Rifle.
While the round chambered by the Arisaka rifle used a rimless case, rimmed and semi-rimmed variants were produced for use in some Japanese machine guns.
The 7.7 Arisaka uses the same.311-.312" bullets as the.303 British, and its cartridge case is similar in power to the.30-06 Springfield(7.62x63mm).

The Meiji Year 99, or Type 99, was an Arisaka design built around the new cartridge, and was put into production in 1939.
A more significant addition was chrome plating to the barrel and bolt face, which allowed the Type 99 to fire a great deal of corrosive ammunition without malfunction.
The Type 99 retained the noisy and grime-prone dust cover of the basic Arisaka design, as well as the unusually long length of the Type 38.

It is important to understand though that the 6.5mm caliber was pretty much already decided upon previously and test cartridges were already available by the time the Arisaka commission of the new rifle began.
The early Murata T-18 and T-22 carbines did not have bayonet lugs too, and I think sometime between the Meiji 30 and Meiji 38, they started to issue bayonets to the cavalry, and then most of the T-30Cs were modified to include the bayonet lugs.
