When I got there he set two rifles on the counter, an Arisaka that had been hacked up and a K98. we shot the bull a little and I told him that the Arisaka was worth about $40 to $50 but , I had no use for it.
The K98 was a mix master with a stamped rear barrel band and floorplate. The bore was dirty and the stock was so so. It was not a RC but it appeares to have spent a little time in the hands of some place that did not like the German proof marks, Most had peen stamped over.
I told him that the rifle would sell for $150 to $175 but I would be willing to give him $100.
Well here are the pic's that I just took. What do ya'll think?
