K98 Value needed

I am looking at buying a K98. Found this one for 430 shipped. It is a russian capture and is mismatched and import stamped. Bore is very good condtion.

K98

In my opinion you would be better off attending a show like Tulsa or Dallas area and picking up one in person, lots of RC come in the door, and lower prices are to be had.

I have picked up a few Russian capture Kar98k rifles for around $200. I know they are going up as they are drying up but someone is trying to double their money.

I agree! $430 is a rip off. For just $200 more you are starting to approach the range of an all matching (except for bolt), non-import, vet bring back with a decent sling.

I'd be patient....
