I have been procrastinating posting this along with all my other Arisaka's and my one Finn M91. Anyway, I just got this over the weekend at Redding's auction. It unfortunately seems that the barrel and receiver are mismatching. The mum has been mostly scrubbed. Other than that it appears to be in good shape. As you can see from the pictures it reads "Type 2". You can see it can be split in two and put back together and receives its bayonet like any other. Unfortunately in trying to use a standard dust cover to complete it, I found that a standard one does not fit on a Type 2. When I put the dust cover on it will not allow the bolt to close because it hits the end of the receiver before the bolt can engage. So it seems the Type 2 has its own size of dust cover.I am really excited to get this in my collection and will be taking it to the range this weekend. There is a lot I could write about, but I am much better at answering questions people have than just vomitting a crap ton of information.
