Authentic Type 38 Arisaka Dust Cover — Original Japanese Rifle Part
Offered is an authentic Type 38 Arisaka dust cover, correct for standard Model 38 rifles. This original artillery/infantry receiver cover is a useful replacement or restoration part for collectors and gunsmiths completing period-correct Arisaka rifles.
The metal body is straight and free of major dents or bends, showing honest wartime patina and surface oxidation consistent with age. Finish retention is moderate with areas of original bluing and period wear; latch surfaces and hinge points remain serviceable. No modern repairs have been observed. The cover fits the standard Type 38 receiver and will accept original-style return spring and catch hardware (minor fitting may be required on some rifles).
A practical spare for restorers, correctors, or museum displays seeking original Japanese rifle components. Photos show the exact item offered—please inspect images for condition details.
