I'll pass.

I would rather have wood anyway.

I make it a point to never buy a gun for the price of a nice used car. I am currently eyeing a Camaro Z28 for that exact same price...

Very cool and interesting.

 

[Darth Ruger]

Oh c'mon you guys, that's a great price!

Saying somthing is worth $14,000.00 and finding a idiot...sorry! a person to pay that is another thing all together.....There is no way in h*** I would pay that.

What you would be willing to pay has absolutely nothing to do with the guns value or what someone else might be willing to pay.

Exactly.

I think I can get a "plastic" stock from Midway or Brownell's for about $69.00...As P.T. BArnum said...

 

[Kharn]

That thing hasnt sold yet? They've been trying to sell it for like 4 years.
I also love how its $14k, but the bolt doesnt match.

Cool? Well, yeah, all right.

$14,000 worth of cool? No way.

Did I miss something about Platinum, or Gold, or Diamond "enhancements"?

You people really miss the point here. You are not buying the gun for $14,000 because it has a plastic stock. It is that high because there are only a handul known to exist. When there are only a handful of a gunin the world, and they are a collectible gun, the price goes way up.

Some more expensive K98's (only because Mitchells overprices, they are even refinished): http://www.mitchellsales.com/rifles/hist_k98/index.htm

Why would I want some old cracked painting of some old woman like the Mona Lisa when I can get a velvet picture of Elvis at the flea market ?

There is an old saying that goes, "Something is only worth what someone else is willing to pay for it." Therefore, I say its worth $7.32. If they're going to be outrageously unrealistic, so am I.

Well, at least it is rare and authentic and not just a dressed up Turk mauser from Mitchell’s Mausers.
