Hello all, picked up a nice T99 TK35 Long last week. Very nice functional condition, excellent bluing as expected. Shoots well. Missing mum, monopod, AA sight "wings" and cleaning rod. Slightly Bubba'ed as they removed the Urushi finish on each side of the receiver about half dollar size and scratched "7.7" into the wood. Ugh... I have some urishi and planning on fixing the patches this summer when the humidity is right (I am aware of the issues). Questions:
1. Which cleaning rod should I be looking for, was there one specifically for the T99 Long?
2. Monopod, I assume a longer one for this version?
3. I read on another thread the TK S35 Serial numbers are not meant to be matched bolt with receiver? Mine does not match XX201 on rec vs 110 on bolt (all parts).
4. Value considering above? Due to rarity, does it demand higher values? Did not pay a lot for it and not planning to sell, just wondering....
