From 1906to the beginning of Wrold War II, when it was discontinued in 1940 in favour of the Type 99, the bolt-action Arisaka Meiji was the standard Japanese rifle. Unfortunately, however, production shortages of the Type 99 caused the Arisaka Meiji to remain in service until the end of the War. Due to a metal dust cover on the bolt, the operation of the Arisaka Meiji was both noisy and prone to clogging. That said, while the Arisaka Meiji was not as powerful as some of the rifles used by the allied nations, the rifle both long and it's action was based upon the Mauser design, which meant that it had very little recoil and was very accurate. In the game there is a sniper variant of the rifle, with a 5.3X scope.
