I picked this up recently, it has a repo sniper bolt and spring from Don and a sanded stock unfortunately. In the market for a scope. Came in the mail on Dec. 7th.
I have several of the T99's and have sporterized 1 over 30 years ago and still being the original barrel in 7.7, they are great shooters. Great rifle that you have there.
Congrats! Don S. is the man, don't know what so many of us in the Japanese collecting world would do without him. Good fortune on the scope and mount search. Luckily I do see them pop up from time to time.
After reading this thread it occurred to me that I seen a scope for the Japanese sniper rifle for sale. I went back and found the listing but it was from nearly a year ago which is further since past than I originally thought however there was no indication that the scope sold.
Maybe the seller still has it? Could be you never know might be a lead- every once in a while one will pop up.
