I received an Arisaka 99 from a widow of a friend of mine who was stationed in Japan after WWII and I was wondering if you guys might have some information about the value of it. I think it is a series 35 and it might be a last ditch rifle.It also has amber colored jewels imbedded in the stock. No one can tell me what is up with these.I am including some pictures. Thanks for any help.

It is a 35th series rifle. Early 4 digit serial number. I don't see any inlays.

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

I see it now. I'd guess just something sparkly added to enhance trade value. Not originally arsenal installed sort of thing.

A note to anyone that can't get pictures to post, be sure your profile is set to 'always allow BBCode...' Log out, then Log back in, and recreate post.
