Please, Brady, let's have more aircraft and vehicles instead of their components.  Only 50 to go until your 1,000th challenge.  Way to go, your thread has always been a highlight.

Type 99.

If I'm right, credit should go to pugg (I read some Japanese).

Another View:






Type 99,It is[:)]

A) Type 99 MK II

B) Type 99 MK I

C) Ho-5


..........................

 Thanks to the Oregon Military Museum and Staff for leting me have my way with their Cannon Colection, and MG collection, I took these a few years ago and just dug them out of an old PC of mine, I apoligise for the over exposhure, but it is interesting to see these weapons next to one another. The Finish on the Type 99's was quiet nice, as good as the German weapons I handeled and the Allied ones, the Army Guns the Ho-5 and the Ho-103(not shown) were not bad either.

.......................

 CC Halo, and TY , more whole picks in the list for the upcomming week.

oh man... I shouldda looked at it closely.  The writing on the gun in the middle says: Type 99-1 Model 3 Number 3 Factory.

It gives the Type Mark Model and even the factory name!
