    Thanks for the help. I was able to use the info provided and some Google search time and identify it as a Arisaka Type 99 from the Nagoya plant. Based on no series marking it is a pre series 1, produced 1939-1945.

    Tikka T3 Stock Crack

    Sorry it has taken a few days to get back to this. The letter from Beretta is below. They stated it was a crease from the camo treatment. BassPro was actually helpful and was willing to full refund the rifle. To make a long story short, I compared the "cracked" stock to 3 other new Tikka...

    Tikka T3 Stock Crack

    I'm picking the rifle up from Bass Pro tomorrow and will post the letter that was included with the return (supposedly from Beretta) and try and get some better pics of the crack. At this point I have to assume BP sent it back to Beretta. When this happened I thought it was a crack in the mold...

    Tikka T3 Stock Crack

    I bought a Tikka T3 Lite in 6.5 Creedmoor from BassPro on the 23rd as my Christmas present to myself. About a week later, I finally mounted the scope and took it to the local range to perform barrel break in and sight in. After 19 rounds, I was passing the cleaning rod through and felt...

    Please help me identify this barrel and then figure out what to do with it.

    Thanks everyone for helping to identify the barrel. It's definitely an M2 heavy barrel. I email US Ordnance to see if they could help me with age or a better description from the serial number. I don't think that it is the stellite version, but I really can't tell because the bore is still...

    Please help me identify this barrel and then figure out what to do with it.

    Long time listener, first time caller. My dad bought or acquired this 15 years (?) ago. It has now ended up in my possession. All I know is that it is supposed to be for a 50 BMG that he was going to build. He ran a machine shop and had the tools and prints to do it back then. Now, all of...
