Trey - who's keeping Type 99 rifle datasheets? If you're keeping them, what's the current high serial number for the 24th Series?

Just picked up a very late 24th Series example that has some interesting features.

Chip, I show you with 99673, a mismatch...

I didn't pay to much for that old Arisaka, I just bought it a little bit too soon!

Yes, I am still collecting datasheets for Type 99 Short rifles, "reports of my demised have been greatly exaggerated!"

"I'm ready for my close up Mr. Demille!"

Thanks Trey. WIll get out a datasheet to you in a couple of days. The one I picked up is a new high serial number: 99927. Has a round recoil lug. According to the Type 99 book, those didn't start showing up until early 25th Series. Stock not drilled for a rod either.
