It says 99A in the auction, and the barrel says 99A, and the wood says 99A, but the lever safety does not say 99A.

Photos don't show the tang so I can't see if it was drilled and tapped for a tang sight. A 99E receiver would not have been. Of course a 99A receiver would not have been either because it would have had a tang safety on the tang. Has a cartridge counter window. Most E's did not but some later ones did. All 99A's did.

Is it not d&t on top? Maybe an early 99 shipped back for factory refurb in 70's?

Pull that forearm when you get it and let us know what model it started life as.

Forearms often fit like that on the later guns.

Does not appear to be drilled and tapped on top from what I can see. If I had had more time I would have asked for the serial number but the auction was nearly done. I decided I needed it as a shooter no matter what it was anyway so I went ahead with it.

I'm not an expert but the buttplate looks like one from a Ruger 10/22? Never seen a carbine buttplate on anything but a carbine. Interesting gun tho.

If that is a M99 original SRC buttstock and you are looking to peddalit, I could take that one off your hands

if you look at picture 5 of 12 you can see the receiver ring with the model up top.
with the williams side mount it doesn't appear that the ring or tang was D&Ted .
the rear fold down looks like its a williams also?
Roy did you really buy this.? i would hate to back out of an auction thinking it was you if not.

Hadn't noticed the carbine buttstock (almost surely not an 1899 SRC buttstock, but very likely a 1930's H). Roy, you probably have yourself another project - restore an old 99H in 250-3000.

If you look at the front receiver ring I'm going to guess this is an original 99E in 250-3000 in the 300,000 range, rebarreled by the factory in the 1980's. What do you think? ![[Linked Image]](https://i.imgur.com/29UQCMM.jpg)
