Looking good! For the price, it was a steal!

I would stablize that tang crack before shooting it more.

That's a beauty. It looks like it has the 20" lightweight barrel that was discontinued about 1926.

Johno, take good care of it. Here's pics of what careless use and stupid with a knife can do to a 99E, 22 H-P.

Really when you see some of that "art work " it makes feel weak in the legs.

I am happy with the rifle there is a very small chip at the toe I have matching timber from an old stock I could use to repair it but might just leave it be
