This one I have my doubts on, but it would take a Holland and Holland expert to answer!!

Using an Arisaka at H&H would be similar to building a Rolls Royce on a VW chassis.

In my collection of actions, I have one Arisaka. Later today I will take a photo of it next to a Mauser and post here, you may be the judge! One problem is it is small, another problem is it is ugly, another problem is the strange safety. The correct actions are strong enough, but a lot has been written about unsafe Arisakas made during the end of the WWII period. My action does have a hinged floorplate, but a thumb latch needs to be fabricated and installed. I have thought of building a 250 Ackley or a 257 Roberts on the action. Would take a lot of work: New redesigned safety, floor plate latch, new bolt handle, a lot of polishing and finishing.

Edit: The floor plate is not hinged, but the front fits into the front of the bottom metal like a M98. It does have a thumb latch in the bow, so when the latch is pushed, the floor plate will drop completely out of the bottom metal.
