Fletch Armitage noted that the Arisaka Rifle sounded less robust than the then American standard M1903 Springfield. Although he noted that the ammunition the rifles used lacked the stopping power of the American rifles, he admitted that the weapon had proved plenty good enough. Later, during the second attempt by the US Navy to retake Hawaii, American bombers destroyed most of the rifles the Japanese had stored, forcing them to use the rifles they'd captured from the Americans.
