Features blade and folding ladder sights, a lightly struck mum next to the "99 Type" model marking, the properly displaced Nagoya stamp and serial number on the rear receiver ring, and smooth pistol grip stock with sling swivels and a cupped metal buttplate. The 4x7 NTC Kogaku scope is numbered "13322" on top and "2758" on the right side of the integral mount.

Fine, with 60% of the original blue finish on the barreled action, showing some areas of brown patina, edge wear and minor spotting. The floorplate is refinished. Some component numbers are mixed or restruck. The sanded, revarnished stock is good, with some minor dents and scuffs. Some minor spotting is visible in the optics, which are otherwise clear and legible with solid reticle and some deterioration and tearing of the detached eye cup. The safety needs adjustment, otherwise mechanically very good.
