went to the surplus store and a K98 caught my eye.
description:
byf arsenal in '41, standard parts match, electropencils everywhere, eagle proofs are visible/unpeened, finish is newish looking - most likely shellac'd, receiver has faint x, RC serial on stock (a Russian capture in late-war mode perhaps), bore is good. Gun has all pieces present, front sight hood present, but possibly a repro. Unsure on import mark but I'm almost positive it had one. Everthing is in sound condition, but nothing looks refurbished (no laminate, high-gloss, etc.) no stock cracks.
price is $369.99 (about $390 after tax)
too high, too low?
I plan to go back up tomorrow to look at it some more if it still there, if more info is required.
Anything else to look for that could help me quickly assess value?
Thanks for any help.
