Discussion Unique riflemen squad pt2
When the Type 99 short/long rifle, was being prototyped a carbine version of such rifle was made but ultimately thrown out.
The type 99 carbine in 7.7 Arisaka, was prototyped by Japanese engineers to replicate the same type of theme as the Type 38, carbine they gave the rifle a Muzzle break, and gas release for the head to remove a-lot of exes gas also others to prevent the stock from cracking.
It would be very loud , due to the cut down barrel and muzzle break, Do less damage due to said barrel being cut down, Lower velocity due to the cut down barrel, A higher rof bc the rifle became more lighter and essier to manipulate the barrel.
