I have a rifle and two bayonets I think the rifle might me a 7.7 and one of the bayonets might be a 1907 model? Any information would be appreciated and I’d be willing to sell after I find out more about it and what it’s worth Thank you

I believe it is a Arisaka Japanese Bolt rifle.
Maybe post on the Arisaka Facebook group https://www.facebook.com/groups/309805842743660
Looks like a type 99 7.7mm jap and No 3 mk 1 bayonet to me
Arisaka with intact chrysanthemum and dust cover! That will make it more valuable for sure.
Rifle is indeed a Japanese type 99 in 7.7x58mm. It was made at the Kokura Arsenal as part of the 23rd series, so 350,000 rifles into this Arsenal's production is your rifle. If matching, the last three digits of the rifles serial number will be on the underside of bolt handle, side of firing pin lug, safety stem, back lip of sheet metal bolt cover and the bottom of the bayonet lug.
The cleaning rod is missing and it looks to have condition issues around the muzzle.
The hooked guard bayonet is a T-30 Japanese bayonet, but both blades as pictured are not worth anything other than digging up potatoes in your garden. Hope this has been helpful.

Forgot to mention. With the rear sight as pictured, you need to squeeze the tabs in and move the slider back down till it bottoms out, then swing the extension arms back in. This way you will not damage the handguard with the folding arms as shown in your photos.
Very cool very valuable rifle in that condition! A keeper for sure!
As mentioned above, the intact Mum is a big plus.
