Tanaka Arisaka Type38 Carbine Gas Sniper (Walnut Stock Ver.2)
About Real Gun The Type 38 rifle
(sanhachi-shiki hoheiju) is a bolt-action service rifle that was used by
the Empire of Japan predominantly during the Second Sino-Japanese War
and Second World War. The design was adopted by the Imperial Japanese
Army in 1905 (the 38th year of the Meiji period, hence "Type 38"). Due
to a lack of power in its 6.5x50mmSR Arisaka cartridge, it was partially
replaced during the war with the Type 99 rifle, but both rifles saw
usage until the end of the war. Intended for use by cavalry, engineers,
and other roles where a full sized rifle would be a hindrance, the Type
38 carbine was introduced into service at the same time as the standard
Type 38. The carbine lacked a bayonet and the cost in 1939 was 67.9 yen per unit

About Airsoft Sniper
The
Tanaka Works Arisaka Type38 Gas Airsoft Carbine is a faithful replica
of the carbine rifle issued to Japanese troops during both World Wars.
This airsoft rifle is a 1:1 replica of the actual rifle except for the
fact that it has a removable 12-round gas magazine and fires 6mm BBs.
The stock is made of actual wood and the receiver is of metal
construction. Although this is a Japanese-made gun that is designed to
use HFC134a or duster gas, there are no plastic exterior bits on this
rifle.
We here in RedWolf appreciate Tanaka for making airsoft
replicas of the Arisaka rifles as most World War 2 era guns available in
airsoft are replicas of guns used in the European or African theaters
while guns used in the Pacific theater seem to be absent. This rifle
would serve well in a reenactment or in World War 2-themed airsoft games
or simply as a nice wall hanger.
