Unidentified Arisaka- Help?

[303tom]

Yeap, the difference`s in the bolts are like the Type 19 has an extractor like on a Mauser & the extractor on the Type 30 is on the front end of the bolt like on an Type 30 Arisaka. Arisaka went with the Mauser style extractor on the Type 35 or 38 I am not sure without looking it up !....................

OK, I think I'm on it now. So it's a "North China Type 30" as opposed to a Type 19 variant.

Not that it matters at this point, as I'm buying it, but any off the hip estimate on what they value at? I've had guys say $200 and I've heard $2500. This is what I hate about uncommon weapons. LOL Biggest reason I'm trying to determine that is to convince the wife why I bought another gun. LOL
