So I did my usual scouting of the pawn shops this last weekend. I have seen this k98 mauser at the same shop the past couple of years but the price was way more than i wanted $340. This time around it was on sale and i had a coupon bringing the price to $200. The stock was broken off at the wrist area and glued back on. it was russian capture with markings still intact. the rifling is good but frosty with some pitting.

I have my pretty guns and my shooters. I bought it to have one. considering the cheapest i could find was about $330 plus shipping and transfer fee i feel like a didn't lose too much.

let me know your thoughts!
 
Throw a new stock on it and you'll have a shooter, or use it as a sporter build if it's accurate.

Either way, sounds like a pretty good deal.
 
98 stock

seen a few on ebay last couple of weeks 50-100 bucks. used of course!
Boyds has 98k laminates for $110 also. OOps! I lied !! Boyds is $144 for a bare stock and $45 for the handgaurd, walnut or laminate.

$200 for a Russian capture with a busted stock is nuts. You can find Yugo capture Mod98 in like new condition for that money.

$167 off Gunbroker.
