Tanaka Arisaka Type44 Carbine Gas Sniper (Walnut Stock Ver.2)
About Real Arisaka Type44
The Type 44 cavalry rifle (?????, Yonyon-shiki kij?/Yonj?yon-shiki kij?) is a Japanese bolt-action rifle. This rifle is also often referred to as a Type 44 carbine. The Type 44 is sometimes confused with the Type 38 carbine, since both were based on the Type 38 service rifle.[3] Designed in 1911 by Arisaka Nariakira, it is a carbine intended for cavalry troops. It had a fixed bayonet and was first issued before the First World War. It was produced in large numbers and was still in production in the early years of World War Two.
About Airsoft Sniper
The Arisaka Type 44 Calvary Rifle or Type 44 Carbine was designed by Nariakira Arisaka for the Imperial Japanese Military and entered production in 1911. The reason why it is called Type 44 is that the year 1911 is the 44th year of Emperor Meiji's reign, this rifle served Japan throughout the entirety of World War II and was intended to replace the Type 38 as the former rifle requires soldiers to carry a separate bayonet or lance, while the Type 44 has a built-in foldable spike bayonet.
The Tanaka Works Arisaka Type44 Gas Airsoft Carbine is a faithful replica of the carbine rifle issued to Japanese troops during World War 2. 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, fires 6mm BBs, and has a blunt bayonet. 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.
