i just got a sporterized type 99 in '06 with the serial # 25XXX. i paid one ben franklin for it. i know nuthin about the type 99 but it is a mauser derivative. i've read(briefly) that after the US defeated Japan, that the type 99 was captured. we didn't have the capability to produce 7.7 jap so we put them in warehouse. then the Korean war happened and then we still don't have a 7.7 jap, but we do have a '06 case and '06 barrels galore. so we said " 'merica " and we 'merica the type 99 and they were sent to South Korea.
i do have question, you notice my thumb is pointing to a half peep sight hole (i don't know the name of it). i don't know name of the manufacturer, but it could be redfield? anyway, does anybody know what you put into the half peep sight hole?
numrich has the 7.7 jap barrels and i'll buy 7.7 jap reloading dies. i have cases of '06, could you reform the '06 to the 7.7 jap?
