Type 99 Light Machine Gun

==Summary==
The Type 99 light machine gun (九九式軽機関銃, Kyūkyū-shiki Kei-kikanjū) was a light machine gun used by the Imperial Japanese Army in World War II.
A top-mounted curved detachable box magazine held 30 rounds, and the finned gun barrel could be rapidly changed to avoid overheating.
The Type 99 had a blade front sight and a leaf rear sight, with graduations from 200 to 1,500 meters, with a wind adjustment. A 2.5X telescopic sight with a 10 degree field of view could be attached at the right side of the gun. These were often issued to the best marksmen of the unit and occasionally employed like a sniper rifle. A standard infantry bayonet could be attached to the gas block below the barrel.
It was a versatile weapon and was adopted widely by the Imperial Japanese Army and was in service until the end of the World War II. The Type 99 was used by Communist forces (Chinese and North Korean armies) during the Korean War. It was also used by the Viet Minh and the North Vietnamese forces during the First and Second Indochina Wars.
