Is it definitely a training rifle, and not a Carcano built for Japan ?
LOTS of variations ! Look towards the bottom of the photo gallery. http://oldrifles.com/japanese.htm

Be aware that Japanese rifles used polygonal rifling and it may just appear to be smooth as there are no defined edges to the rifling.
