    Unfortunately I am traveling right now so I can't measure it. I did go through my order history and I ordered it through sarco and it was listed as a 14 inch vz24 rod. Unfortunately they appear out...

    Wow that came out really good. I love the stock. For a cleaning rod I used a VZ24 cleaning rod in mine. It screwed in perfectly and seems to be the correct length. I think I just saw the front sight...

    Yes. It's a unique rifle that was at least advertised as a military rifle. I have one and it's a fun rifle to shoot.

    Auction wise I would say $550 would be a good base price. Otherwise the Centerfire Systems K31s with no mag went for $450 last year. Bowman Armaments which was a new seller sold K31s for $450 as well...

    I was wondering when they were sold out of Chilean service. I would guess then that they must have sat in storage for awhile since the Almirante Latorre was sold for scrap in 1959.

    Ross Rifle Restoration has made them in the past. In talking with him he seems to make them in batches. I've been waiting for one for awhile now so he might be close to making some soon.

    Rough answer I would say based on watching previous auctions is $1500 for a good condition Mark III. This might be a little high but with so few selling over a year it's sometimes hard to see where...
