Why not just buy the books? Both "The Japanese Type 99 Arisaka Rifle" by Don Voigt and "The Type 38 Arisaka" by Francis Allan and Harold W. Macy. Both out line the markings and their meanings and which series you will find which marks. Believe the "The Type 38 Arisaka" is now sold on line in PDF format.
