Hi
I thought maybe you may want to see this Type 99. It is a last ditch and the the pictures are awakening. This was brought back from the Islands and you can see that the fellow carrying it was hit with a flame thrower. Not a good day for him. Thanks

Jow, was this brought back by a family member? The wood buttplate looks unusaully thick! What series is it?

I think this is the 34th Series that was the subject of another post from last week.
