600$ for parts rifles... wow. Where have the 199$ days gone. Hate to see what bring back rifles are going for these days.

$1500 and up without import markings, some with no real provenance.

From what I read over at gunboards, these were refurbished at Tula Arsenal and were intended for resale in the Russian Market. I'm assuming that they didn't sell and that's why they ended up here. They look pretty but essentially are mismatched parts guns with marks intact.

 

[aquaman]

LOL. People will pay it, whatever.

I see someone jumped on the S/42/G and BSW. Neat codes to have. I wouldn't mind having an S/42/G to go with my S/147/G.

Glad I got mine for only $310

ill pass

 

[DarthZed]

I got mine through Classic, and it ended up having major corrosion under the handguard. Rifle probably isn't safe to shoot, so its just a wall hanger. Didn't realize the extent of the damage till alfter I'd started removing rust.

Didn't pay nearly as much as they are asking for this batch though.

 

[fivepointstar]

thanks for the heads up!!!! I'm going to pass too

I still cannot believe what Russian capture K98k mismatches are going for. That's just insanity. I'd like to know what exactly drove the 300% price increase in a couple of years.

try less than a year. In March of '11 I was buying rc k98's at 250-300. They started going nuts in Jan '12

Supply and Demand.... I would imagine that the supply has dried up, at least in the short term primary market.
