Mud said:I have a type 99 arisaka rifle with all the markings the stock was sportarized though, what is it worth?
depends, does it have aircraft sight?? mum still there? Last ditch?? finnish, bore?? Proballly looking around 75-150$ without a jap stock. probally worth more to keep than let it go.
Usually they go for 150-400$+ depending on how nice the are
$250 with the sporterized stock as you can replace it easily (they weren't numbered).
I also have a arisaka that my grandfather brought home from the Philippines during ww2 , does yours still have the crisanthium on the receiver ?
Here's a link that may help:

Watch eBay and Gunbroker and be patient. Maybe create an account on an Arisaka forum and post a WTB ad.
