I'm going to look at a rifle tomorrow and the guy said it was a double barrel Japanese WW II rifle. Anyone ever heard of these? He said it was an Ariska.

The only things that come to mind are a commercial double barrel shotgun with an adaptor on it for a bayonet, used in prison camps as far as I know, or possibly a Type 22 Murata might look like a double barrelled rifle. Take pictures if you can. Trey

I didn't pay to much for that old Arisaka, I just bought it a little bit too soon!

I'll let you know what I find. I found three today and made an offer. One very nice 38 with perfect blueing and perfect mum and sling. Also two 99's with original slings bipods and untouched mums. One is very nice one is in good shape but the stock is rough cut and the safety knob looks like my 12 year old pounded it out in the garage. It also looks like it may not have been blued.
