Best Answer

Most of the Japanese weapons were surrendered over to the Allied Forces and melted down to be recycled to help rebuild Japan. Some of the weapons were retained by either the GIs or the provisional government and you will find them in museums or personal collections.

In Europe many of the German weapons were melted down but there had been a huge problem of the GIs collecting specific German weapons to sneak back home. Hence, the US and Brittan have a lot of World War 2 German weapons in collections and museums.

Large artillery and ships and planes were recycled to have the metal to be reused in the war reparations in both Europe and Japan.

The weapons of the Allied Forces were restocked or decommissioned or recycled. There are thousands of WW2 weapons in personal collections, gun shops, gun shows and museums.
