hello all, i have a 99f chambered in 308. the rifle is special to me, was one of my grandfathers rifles. what makes this one interesting is it has a retractable sling in the butt stock. i cannot find any information on this feature, so i figured id ask here. any ideas?
”After market” addition maybe???Quote:
