Where do you find value of World War 2 japanese rifle?

Answer 1

The value of ANY firearm depends on the exact make, model, condition, and originality. For instance, a Excellent condition Japanese type 38 Arisaka, with the chrysanthemum marking intact (indicating captured in combat, not surrendered at war's end) might be worth $500, and a similar rifle with a ground off marking, and converted to civilian sporter style, might be worth $150. YOUR rifle will need a hands on assessment from someone that knows Japanese firearms. Check w/local guns shops, or take it to a local gun show.
