"JAPANESE TYPE 99 SNIPER RIFLE. SN 5921. Cal. 7.7 mm. This Nogoya arsenal produced type 99 was the favorite sniper rifle of the Japanese in the Pacific during the second WW. It is equipped with a 2.4 power telescope (no rubber eye piece present), bayonet, sling, and air craft sights. Neither the bolt or bayonet matches and the dust cover is not present. Scope case included. PROVENANCE: Stern Collection. CONDITION: Receiver retains approximately 80% of its finish with the rear bridge thinning more than the front. Bolt retains approximately 80% of finish and has bent handle as is expected for this rifle. Bbl retains approximately 90% finish with a little wear on the left hand side from the bayonet frog and a couple of small rack marks on the top. Front and rear sights show most of their finish. Front bbl band shows little finish, turning gray. Rear bbl band shows approximately 70%. Triggerguard and floorplate assembly turned to brown but still appear pleasing. Buttplate assembly has blue around the edges but the flat portion is patina. Telescope retains about 60% blue with clear optics with no debris within. Mechanics are crisp and bore is bright and shiny with good rifling although it has seen use. Buttstock and handguard have numerous small dents and nicks throughout but not so much as to detract from rifle and there is a small hole approximately 1" in front of the floorplate screw that is approximately 1/8" - 3/16". Overall a pretty nice Jap sniper rifle. Scope case is in good condition. 4-34061 BK111 (3,400-4,900)"
