I am inheriting a T97 sniper rifle from my grandfather and had a quick question about some markings. The "mum" is intact however, it is painted white. I have been looking around at Arisaka 99's and 97's, and I have seen them with or without the paint. I know some people believe that this is a post-war addition, but I just don't see the reason why this would be added post-war. Let me know what you guys and gals think. Thanks

If you need pics please let me know. I will try and get some. I do not have the rifle yet however, I just want to know. Thanks again
