I got one like that in 303...I have to check my serial numbers to see how close it is to yours. They are beautiful rifles.

I've been lucky enough to find a B, F and a G, like yours, in that condition with the high polish receiver. Would like to find the other models to go with them but not holding my breath.
They appear to be in the 304xxx to 319xxx serial range but not all in that range have the high polish and if they did doesn't mean they still do. So, I think finding one like LBK's is pretty slim.

I've also seen 99A's and 99H's with it, but never with enough condition to make it worthwhile to buy.

I have several with various degrees of high luster as in traces. But this is the only one I have been able to come by that was within reach and I wasn't about to walk away.

WoW LBK! That's as close to NIB as it could be, without the box. Beautiful!

You got a 22 H.P. in the group? Not in a G. I have an early E in 22HP and a Crescent in a HP.

You got a 22 H.P. in the group? Second one down here is one of the 99's with mirror finish in 22HP. Trying to remember if I've seen another.. I don't recall. I lucked into this. Nice condition, but not as minty as LBK's 300. ![[Linked Image from i.imgur.com]](https://i.imgur.com/2m1dqWPh.jpg)
