So, I assume these rifles with the 1959 receivers have the hole for the cartridge counter, unlike the later Es.
We’re the rotors marked with the numbers too?
Yep.. as far as can be seen, the receivers and parts on 99E V2 Styles 1 & 2 are just like any 1959 receivers/parts.
It seems like the change to no cartridge counter was very close to the change from walnut stocks to birch stocks. I'm not sure I've seen a 1961 birch stocked 99E with a cartridge counter, or a 1961 99E with no cartridge counter and a walnut stock. I'm sure there's a few floating around.
