Historical Precision: The S&T Type 38 Sniper Rifle (ST-SPG-14)

The Type 38 was the cornerstone of the Imperial Japanese Army for decades, known for its incredible length, accuracy, and robust bolt-action design. The S&T Type 38 Sniper Rifle (ST-SPG-14), available at Bespoke Airsoft, is a premium replica that captures every detail of this historical icon, combining a magnificent Real Wood Stock with the modern reliability of a spring-powered airsoft system.

Authentic Wood and Metal Craftsmanship

This rifle is a masterpiece of historical replication, featuring a stunning, one-piece real wood stock that provides the authentic weight and balance of the original firearm. The metal components, including the outer barrel, receiver, and bolt assembly, are finished to a high standard to ensure durability and a realistic metallic sheen. The inclusion of the Imperial Chrysanthemum (or Arisaka markings) on the receiver adds the final touch of period-correct authenticity for the most discerning collectors.

Sniper-Specific Features and Modularity

As the sniper variant, the ST-SPG-14 includes a side-mounted scope base designed to accept historical-style optics. The bolt handle is specifically shaped to clear a mounted scope, ensuring smooth cycling during engagement. For shooters preferring iron sights, the rifle retains the classic ladder-style rear sight, which is fully adjustable for elevation.

VSR-10 Performance Core

Underneath its historical exterior, the S&T Type 38 utilizes a modernized internal system based on the VSR-10 architecture. This is a significant advantage, as it provides:

• Exceptional Upgrade Path: Compatibility with a wide range of aftermarket VSR-10 springs, pistons, and hop-up components to maximize FPS and range.

• Reliable Consistency: The simple spring-powered mechanism ensures consistent muzzle velocity (typically 380–420 FPS out of the box) regardless of weather conditions.

• Adjustable Hop-Up: Features an easily accessible sliding hop-up lever on the side of the barrel for precise trajectory control with heavy-weight BBs.

Tactical Role and Milsim Value
