Either identify and describe the rifle real well so that a person who can't see it could take a guess (and if it is a JC Higgens, I can save you the effort, because the answer is "Not very much") or you could take it to a gunsmith or collector to have it appraised.
How old is it? Who Made it? What shape is it in? you need to give more information to find out the value.

You cant, unless you can identify the rifle correctly. Need to know ALL the markings, barrel length, caliber, etc.
In general, yes. IF the rifle is a collector's item (not all old guns are) it can lower value greatly.
It all depends on the age, condition and the collect ability of the rifle.
i have an old Sears rifle with a busted stock , does this thing have any value?
My understanding is the model 938 was a toy rifle not a bb rifle, but I did find out it was made in 1988

To find out how old a Winchester rifle is one would need to take the rifle to an appraiser or gun shop. The gun shop will be able to look up the gun by the serial number.
We MAY be able to find answer for you, if you can find the MAKE of the rifle for us.
I can find no listing of an ERA rifle in any of my references or on line. Can you provide more information?
I cannot find any reference to a Redfield Rifle...however there are references to Redfield rifle scopes/optics. Does your question relate to rifle scopes?
