I've been watching a real clean post war 99R in 300 languish on one of the auction sites for most of the summer at 700-bucks. This got me thinking that in the trio of post war models the 99R is actually the least desirable, which is a bit ironic as it was the "flagship" 99 for that period. In the models offered during the first 15-years following the war it seems that the F comes first in desirability, followed by the EG (or maybe we should just start calling it the 99MS for Mater Stake) and the R comes in at a solid third place. This just my observation and I thought I'd toss it out there if anyone's interested or has noticed something different.
