    It is an original Kar 98k. Seems Norwegian modified and reissued. Those were first changed to 30.06 and later to 7,62 x 51 NATO, if not mistaken.

      Okay thank you, how much do you think it is worth roughly?

        I don't know what the market price might be but for me, as a collector, nothing. It has been transformed and modified too much. If you are a hunter it might be worth something.

          me6 has described its collector appeal but to a beginner on a limited budget, it should be marketable. These were first imported to the US in the late 80s and sold well. As I recall, all were in .30-06 and some actually had their original matching numbers in addition to those assigned by Norway. I recently paid $500 for a completely matching pre-war stock and hardware that came from one of these to complete a sporter rescue of a barreled action by the same year and manufacturer and was happy to get it. In the US, your rifle would have more marketability that a Mitchell or Russian capture and would sell in the $650-$750 range.
