    Arisaka rifle ID - help please

    Hey y'all!

    I need to sell off some things, as my work has changed from full-time to part-time. In going through and figuring out items I'd be ok with parting with, I came across this rifle.

    Now, I'm 99% sure it's a training/school rifle, but I would love it if you experts could please take a look at the pictures and tell me whatever possible about it, including an estimated value. The bore is very dirty, and I believe it is a smoothbore.

    It came with the sling, muzzle cover, dust cover and bayonet shown in the photos, and I will be selling it all together as a set. Please let me know what the estimated value with everything included would be.

    The pictures should tell you far more than I possibly could. Please let me know if you need pictures of anything else. Thank you so much for your time and help!

    Luke

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.

    Can't really help you with a value, I don't know much about training rifles if that is what your is. It does not have a mum and doesn't look like one was ground off so that "probably" makes it a training rifle. As they go, it is one of the nicest I've ever seen. The sling, dust cover, and muzzle cover alone as parts are worth quite a bit but again, I can't say how much. The bayonet is not a training bayonet but a "real" one. It's missing the scabbard and isn't in very good shape which probably puts it in the $40-$60 range. I've seen training rifles go for a song, I've seen them go for hundreds. Yours I would guess should go in the hundreds but how many, can't help you.
