Japanese Arisaka 30 bolt action training rifle. This is a Koishikawa (Toyko) None series "hook safety" training rifle. The "mum" and type & original serial numbers were nicely removed, with the receiver ring then marked with three Japanese characters which signify "Blank Ammunition Only". It has a smooth unrifled bore designed to use 6.5mm blanks (not for firing standard ammunition), mismatched numbers, late issue ladder type rear sight, and an inverted "V" front sight without the ears. Has original blue patina metal finish, and original 2 piece wood stock with some accpetance stamps. Stock has typical dents, dings, and scratches from service. Approx 10,000 of these type 30 rifles made between 1897 to 1904 were turned into trainers with a smooth bore. Serial number 21xx, C&R eligible, and is in overall good condition.
