So I was scrounging through my grandparents basement and found 3 type 99's. 1 of which was relatively simple to ID. The other 2, however, have me clueless.
The first one has a smooth bore and a bubba'd stock. (No worthwhile images taken of the stock). The bolt was significantly different then the other two as well. The story on this one was that my great uncle cut it down and used it as a deer rifle...
Looks like no mum was ever there, nor any writing
No arsenal or inspector marks
Poorly made sight.
The second rifle is immaculate. It had a matching bayo with a number 7 etched in the bayo handle.
Bayonet marking (only one)
Type 99 single hole, not sure what writing means though?
Markings inside of stock
Only SN on the gun
So are these trainers or just rifles with shot out barrels?
