By Peter Peter Suciu misconception that Japanese small arms were always somewhat inferior.
It is true however that the two main combat rifles, the Arisaka Type 38
and the Type 99 rifles were essentially based on technology used a
generation earlier – but it should be remembered that the same held true
for most of the other powers at the start of World War II as well. Even
the United States was still in the process of rearming with the M1 rifle,
and thus large numbers of 1903 Springfield rifles were used in the early
stages of the war.
Likewise, Germany and Russian were using their respective bolt action
rifles at war’s end, as were the British. The Japanese actually faced
greater resource problems than the other powers, but they also had
cultural issues – essentially a “want not, need not” mentality.
Additionally, another issue complicated matters for the Japanese
military, namely the acknowledged rivalry and simmering hatred
between the Japanese army and navy.
“This led to the navy having to struggle to procure arms and

Japanese Arisaka Rifles equipment from the government & eventually led up to the
navy establishing its own arsenal systems,” emphasizes
Holub. “This backbiting and infighting hindered the
cooperation between the branches of service and greatly
affected the outcome of the war. The Japanese were a very

including bullets. This was one of the reasons why their

the 7.7x58mm round, based on the British .303 (7.7x57R). To confuse Smith & Wesson BODYGUARD

moniker of “Arisaka” is used for both rifles. Because many of the later
war rifles were of lower quality, and often called “last ditch” there is a
common misconception that all Type 99s were last ditch, but this is far
from the case.
Some three and a half million of the Type 99 rifles were made, not
counting variations, including the regular short rifle as well as Type 99
Long Rifle, and the Sniper Rifle Type 99. Another version of the rifle, the
Type 44 Carbine, was designed primarily for use as a cavalry rifle –
although this shouldn’t be confused with the Type 38 Cavalry rifle, a
slightly shorter version of the Type 38. The most interesting version is by
far the Type 2 Paratroop Rifle, which could broken down into two parts.
A final variation are those Type 99 Short Rifles (some 133,000) that were

Washington, DC --(Ammoland.com)- Members of the Congressional

Sportsmen’s Caucus (CSC) successfully exempted video depicting
hunting, trapping and fishing in the “Animal Crush Video Prohibition
Act of 2010” as approved by the U.S. Senate in September and passed in
the U.S. House of Representatives last night .
The Congressional Sportsmen’s Foundation (CSF), in partnership with

Safari Club International (SCI) and the National Rifle Association
(NRA), earlier this year expressed concerns to the leadership of the CSC
that the legislative language in the bill should explicitly exclude videos
and television programs showing legal hunting, fishing and trapping
activities.
“While we all oppose malicious cruelty to animals such as

those seen in these videos, it was vitally important that this
legislation specifically address the filming, distribution and
sale of legally produced hunting, fishing and trapping video
