Would you buy this for $250?!?

Take a look at this K31 on Gunbroker and let me know what you think.

[P5 Guy]

No, too expensive by about $75 to $100.
Just my $.02

Oh of course, right after I buy the Brooklyn bridge...

 

[SigfanUSAF]

That wood is NRA Very good condition??????? Metal seems nice in pics. Beech/birch like that commands less than walnut though. It's my firm opinion that the thing isn't worth that much though. I wouldn't do it. (Unless you'd pay me $150 or so, then I'd consider it )

 

[jcs77]

But look at the condition of the stock! That seems like a fair price.

 

[Nathan Williams]

No but then guns that belong in the Smithsonian dont interest me either.

 

[270Win]

Absolutely too much - that stock is in terrible shape!!

Metal does seem good, though, and numbers match.

 

[cracked butt]

5 years from now that might be a decent price. Right now, no way!

 

[Hardware]

The only good use for that stock is firewood.

 

[The Grand Inquisitor]

That rifle is absolutely worth $275...as long as the seller tapes two $100 bills to the butt stock.


Otherwise, you can get a K-31 easily for under $125.

That is pretty bad. That magazine looks like its a tad too far forward and the rear sight looks pretty interesting.

 

[boonie]

silverlance, thats not a k31

that looks like a bubba'd 1889 Schmidt-Rubin rifle...

at a glance, looks like they just cut the barrel in front of the sight and carved up the stock.

[270Win]

That ram is pretty nasty too...

 

[cracked butt]

Looks like an 1889 to me too. To be fair, I've only seen 4 or 5 of them in person and they have all been bubbafied.
