Socially Distant Stabby - Arisaka Type 99 w/ Bayonet & Su...
Finally got the accessories to complete the late war Arisaka, being a late war Type 30 bayonet, reproduction leather sling, sling swivel, and reproduction cleaning rod. Unfortunately my table wasn't long enough so new background this time.
Although the late war rifles didn't have a space for a cleaning rod, I needed one of appropriate length anyway & snap caps for practice and fumbling with dummy rounds.
Measuring at almost 5 feet long (1.5m) with the 16in (0.4m) bladed bayonet, it's definitely on the lengthy side considering the soldiers using these in WWII weren't much taller.
Edited the submission image because I got a Japanese flag to attach to the rifle, also to remove the redundant submission.
