Picked up this matching type 2 from a gunshow with questionable “artwork”

Mum is ground so I don’t think it was done in the field but maybe shortly after by a vet….or maybe a really bored Fudd in 1970. Anyone else see “artwork” like this on Arisakas? Whoever did it had some serious woodworking skills…

Just picked up this matching Type 2 Paratrooper Arisaka that has some….questionable customization….

It’s all matching, got it for $1,000 dollars hairs

Part of me strangely likes it🤣 I’m not sure if it’s from a vet or second hand but whoever did it has some serious woodworking skills and put some serious time into it

I know next to nothing on Jap rifles, so if someone could give me more info, it would be greatly appreciated
