Here’s one I’ve had for a while and one the few weapons I have that’s been marked by it’s captor. It’s a Japanese T99 long , the first version of that rifle series. M Weisman saw fit to carve his name on the stock’s underside. No indication of what service branch he belonged to , though most mummed Japanese rifles I purchased directly from the vet were from Navy veterans (this one came from a Miami gunshop). Here are some pics.

For anyone just wanting one 99 for their collection, I always recommend this early long rifle as the fit and finish is outstanding on collector grade examples.

Again, nice rifle and good luck in tracking down M. Weisman.
