    It is an early Type 99, series 4 (serial number 10.000 - 99.999) made at the Nagoya arsenal with all the correct features. Early plumb shaped bolt, early rear sight with anti-aircraft wings, early knurled safety knob, early three-screw front band, early front sight guards, correct two-screw rear swivel, correct rear band, correct wide cupped metal buttplate.
