IN EXCELLENT CONDITION, ALL MATCHING WITH THE ORIGINAL SLING WE HAVE A NICE VET BRINGBACK TYPE 99 RIFLE IN 7.7 MM.  THIS IS AN EARLY PRODUCTION 2OTH  SERIES RIFLE THAT WAS MANUFACTURED AT THE KOKURA ARSENAL.  THE GUN IS ALL MATCHING INCLUDING THE DUST COVER.  THE TYPE 99 RIFLE IS CONSIDERED TO BE THE CLASSIC WW2 JAPANESE BATTLE RIFLE AND WAS THE MAIN INFANTRY WEAPON THAT WAS EMPLOYED BY THEM IN THE ISLAND CAMPAIGNS.  THE MOST DESIRABLE TO COLLECTORS ARE THESE EARLY EXAMPLE RIFLES THAT HAVE THE MONOPOD AND THE ELABORATE ANTI AIRCRAFT SIGHTS.  THESE WERE VERY WELL MADE STURDY DEPENDABLE RIFLES WITH SOME NOVEL FEATURES AND WERE JUST AS EFFECTIVE AND ACCURATE AS ANY CONTEMPORARY BOLT ACTION RIFLE OF THE ERA.
