Scratch that. It's even more expensive than the Type-99, and it is the most expensive rifle Tanaka makes at this point (as far as I know).

Looks like a great purchase for GO FOR BROKE who has an excellent IJM impression. This is very encouraging as it shows still more WW2 offerings from major manufacturers.

Yep. I'm sure it would be an awesome gun for an IJM impression. Hopefully tanaka will expand their WWII arsenal to include models from other nations. Cross your fingers and say mosin-nagant 3 times fast.

Oh my, oh my! Going to have to start saving up my pennies for this beauty. I've already got a spot waitin' for her next to my real steel T-38 (which cost me almost two and a half times less than the Tanaka does; go figure ). Dan BTW I do IJ Army, not Marines...although I did do a TV shoot as a Naval Landing Force PO...if any of you are in Michigan you might see me on your TV's sometime in the future! ;D

Nice! I got a real-steel type-99, but no bullets Unfortunately, I just don't have that kind of money to spend.....

this is awesome. i haven't noticed many japanese impressions, so this could be a big incentive. hell, i might even make one. i wouldn't look to good though, being 6' 2'', and of celtic heritage, not japanese!

I personally would love to see a Type-96 or 99 machine gun. And hopefully one thats a tad cheaper than this.
