World war 2 Japanese rifle that folds is it a paratrooper rifle?
Winchester used to call a rifle that disassembled into two parts-their "takedown model." If your rifle is a "takedown" rifle, it's a paratrooper model. Could be a Type 38 (6.5mm) or a Type 99 (7.7mm), then if it's a takedown...it might have another designation; like Type 2 (as an example). If it's in original condition (and good condition), they could go about 2 thousand dollars to a collector.
