New old guy

[2ndChildhood]

Damn it's been a long time...
So long, my username got deleted, North site is closed, unbelievable.

I actually have a really nice set of in-laws, but this takes the cake!

For my birthday they sent me a C&R gun they've had sitting around forever. It's an Arisaka type 99, I have it apart cleaning up the metal and wood.
The metal is rusted some but not too bad so I'll just clean it up real good and put it back together rather than re-blue and strip the wood.

I'm all psyched now, just have to pick up a box or 2 of rounds for it.

Here she is.

It's got this funny site for leading low flying aircraft.

It has a flower!

Typical rust damage.

Hey 2C!! Wondered if you were still around these parts or had moved on.

Glad to hear from you, congrats on the Arisaka!

Nice Arisaka. I have one of those too. Nice to see yours still has the anti-aircraft sights still in place.
