I have a 99 in 358 serial #918XXX.
There is no model shown following the 99 on the receiver. Can it be an "F?"
Thank you

If it's a 99F, it will have a rear sight barrel boss and say 99F on the barrel. Rounded forearm with wraparound checkering.
If it's a 99EG, it will have a thin forearm having a schnabel tip, triangular checkering on the sides.
If it's a 99R, it will have a fat forearm with rounded end and triangular checkering on the sides.

They don’t make it easy on us. There were three totally different “F’s” over about a hundred or so years.
Yes, yours could be an F. It’s one of the three models Calhoun listed.

I'm not greedy, I just want one of each.

There were only 3 models made at that serial number range you mentioned, so it will have to be one of the 3 models I listed unless there's a leading letter on the serial number you forgot to mention.
