I want a K.98

[MilsurpShooter]

Where's the best place to go? I've got this C&R here, made copies of it and I'm thinking it's about time to get it broken in. I know I'm not going to find a pristine all matching number, all markings intact K.98, even if I would be able to find one of them I doubt I'd want to put down the chunk of change that it would cost. What I'm really looking for is a good shooter with decent markings I guess? A few markings would be good, but those can be overlooked a little.

So where would you guys suggest going? I like to collect these rifles but I don't just want a safe queen or a rifle that looks good but can't shoot.

Thanks for any help

AIM just got another shipment in. I got 2 from the last shipment and they are in good shape for RC's.

Thanks M110. I'll be faxing them my C&R tomorrow morning

There's also SOG and Century. You should make sure to send your C&R to those guys too.

Thanks everyone, just placed my order with Classic Arms. They had some good choices and I liked the descriptions they had next to each one compared to just a lot assessment.

See if I can't have some pictures when it comes in.
