This Type 99 bolt-action rifle was made at Kokura Arsenal around 1944 to 1945 and is chambered in 7.7x58mm, with a 26 inch round barrel. The supplier notes that the bore is dark with faint rifling remaining, and that the serial numbers do not match. The rifle shows honest handling and service wear. Late-war Type 99 rifles often show simplified manufacturing and a rougher finish, which the supplier links to wartime material shortages. The action is smooth, mechanically sound and functions correctly. Listed as used, serial number 15219.
The 7.7x58mm is a centerfire cartridge, placing this rifle among the centerfire rifles that Missouri's firearms deer portions allow for 2026-27, including the November portion from Nov. 14-24. It suits a collector who values late-war production features, or a buyer who wants a centerfire military bolt action for range use. The wear and finish are part of the rifle's character, so the photos and condition notes give the full picture.
