pretty good, actually

A bubba Arisaka with no bolt is not worth $90. Maybe, just maybe, it would be worth it if the bore was immaculate, the bluing was pristine, and the mum was intact.

>>31743236
Dont care. Its a good rifle, and I like it.
Bought that thing 6 years ago and I see arisakas for 270+ in the local shops. 90$ is chump change, especially in the gun world. Sadly the chrisanthemum is damaged. Fuckin gooks.

$270 is last ditch pricing. If you're after an early-mid war Type 99, you'll be paying anywhere for $450-$800 easily. Especially if you want a dust cover, aircraft sights, and monopod.
Shame Japanese rifles and ammo are so expensive. I'd love a complete Type 99, both for the history and the fact that it's an amazingly competent rifle.

Owner probably thought it was a "non gun" because of no bolt.
Which is stupid, but it wouldn't surprise me. Or could have been a personal gun which requires no 4473 IIRC.

bluing on his rifle is pretty good, and the bores are hard chromed in most cases
go back to the 80's from which you came
>>
>>31743417
I loved my Arisaka but I had to sell it because I couldn't find ammo for it anywhere. Gun was in great shape and I sold it to a collector for good money.
I miss that gun. Sadly any foreign milsurp that doesn't shoot russian rounds is getting nearly impossible to feed.

The 80's are great, I'm still able to buy parts matching Arisakas in pretty good shape for less than $250.

If you shoot milsurp in an uncommon caliber you're crazy for not reloading

Nice woo

>>31744494
Always wanted one of those, but to me
They look sort of plastic-y. Almost kind of like
The hi-point rifles and the first gen oracles.
Either way, bullpups kick ass and look rad.
Noce score friend. I missed out on a pawnshop
Bullpup 2 years ago. Still makes me sad.
