Anyone have any idea what this rifle may be worth?

I'm currently getting more info on it, but as of now, this is what I have.

Intact mum, dust cover, AA sights, monopod. Possibly a bayonet.

IF everything is correct and real (lots of repro dust covers and monopods out there...), and it is a matching gun with mum...I would realistically think it would be worth $500 to $550, maybe more depending on series and maker...

Mummed AND Matching guns bring a real premium....

That being said, if it is a mismatch, but all the pieces are real, I would guess it would drop to about $400...

It hard to tell, the stock looks a little light, if it has been sanded, drops to about $300...

That's just my shot, YMMV...

ETA If it is matching all the numbers will match, receiver, nose cap, bolt and bolt parts, and the dust cover would be serialed too...

Thanks, what specific things should ask ask for pics of?

Ask for good shots of the markings on the left side of the receiver, that will tell maker, series, and s/n...I have a Type 99 collector book based on Banzai research, so we can tell if the parts would be correct for that particular maker/series/serial...

Lots of guys might hang stuff on guns that ought not be there, like monopods and dust covers...

If you can get shots of at least the bolt s/n, nosecap (usually on the bottom or backside of bayo lug), and the number on the dust cover on the back "flange" flat....that would be helpful in determining if matching...some close ups of the stock....

Obviously the name of the game is to get it as cheap as possible....is there a price attached, or does he want an offer?

Thanks, it belongs to a friend of another member here. I'll direct him to this thread.

Well, its a Nagoya Arsenal gun, can't make out the series mark, its the little tiny mark to the right of the circle mark next to the serial number....

OK, I sent him a message.
