    "description": "A stout and rugged battle rifle that traces its origins to the hands of imperial Japanese forces and saw extensive use in the Pacific theatre of the Second World War, this bolt-action firearm shoots the 7.7x58mm Arisaka cartridge.  Powerful, dependable, and elegantly built, Japan’s 20th-century infantry rifle may yet find service guarding the lives of her former enemies.",

        "description": "The standard service arm of the imperial Japanese army during the Second World War, chambered for the powerful 7.7x58mm cartridge and built to replace the weaker Type 38, the Type 99 is a sturdy and formidable bolt-action rifle with a Mauser-inspired action renowned for its strength.  Though the rifle was historically sneered at in the US due to extensive anti-Japanese propaganda and the lower quality of later-production guns, the weapon is, by most metrics, a finely produced and effective shoulder arm.  This particular Arisaka is an early-war example with anti-aircraft sights and an intact 6-petal chrysanthemum seal.",

        "description": "Standing as a clear example of what happens when a country losing a war realises that it’s running out of resources and its rifles are ripe for corner-cutting, this Type 99 Arisaka, the standard service arm of imperial Japan from 1939, is a crewed end-of-war example.  Coated in machining marks, lacking an upper handguard, and with the early production anti-aircraft sights long since done away with, where early production Arisaka rifles are a feat in elegant engineering, this one is a last-ditch bang stick hammered together in a mostly bombed-out factory.  Aesthetics not withstanding, this weapon is still an effective and powerful shoulder arm, just… not the prettiest."
