    Never mind the dust cover! Early T38s had the monobipod too.

    They are all cock-on-close like the Lee Enfield (and early Mausers) so lend themselves to lighter two-fingered bolt operation. I checked, you can JUST operate the straight bolt with thumb/index finger and fire with middle finger for rapid sequence shots. With the bent bolt of the sniper versions this would feel just natural. Never seen this mentioned in write-ups about Arisakas.

    Anyone know how much gunsmiths charge to bend a bolt handle?
