Don't figure I'll ever need this. But a buddy was ordering one on my CC and I figured WTH....#ar500armor
 
So my Grandfather was a Marine Corp medic sitting off shore when Truman dropped the bombs. He was part of the occupation force and brought a Japanese officer sword and this home.

I held this rifle for the first time last night. Uncle had it in attic in Arkansas.

I am guessing it's a Type 38 (in service from 1906-1945) That would make it a 6.5x50mm Arisaka caliber. Odd thing is most on the internet are a 99 series and this one has zero Japanese markings?

Thoughts.....

I picked up 250 Bald Cypress seedlings today to try to reclaim the damage the Beavers are doing to the Scout Pond that Julie and I bought next door.

I'm waiting to see if I can increase the body count tonight. The two bloated carcasses from a few weeks ago are out there
