    Wow, that's a big difference in price. The JP Saur & Son is $1700. It is all matching though, and I see photos. Both websites look like good websites. Thanks for the info.

    A lot of you are saying RCs should be in the $300-400 range. Could you point me to a couple sources that have them at this price? Because I haven't found them anywhere for that price. At Gun shows, if I can find them (and I don't see them that much anymore), it's been a long time since I've seen them for that price.

    What I can find, are Argentinian and Chileanicon Mausers, and those are normally $500-600.

    If anecdotal evidence counts as a source my two RC K98s were purchased at the lower end of that range in the southeast US recently.

    OK, that's good to know they're still out there, at that price. My price book lists a RC at $200 G, $300 VG. That's last year though, I wasn't sure if it was still current. For some reason, the gun and ammo market has been very volatile this year.

    Which reason rules preclude discussion so I won't. My search took a couple of years, very few K98icon examples of any description in my neck of the woods.

    I'm sure you figured it out, but that was a joke, when I said, "for some reason." haha

    Taken and replied to as such with my own little joke about the rules which though a good idea hard to avoid breaking when the hobby is so inexorably linked to the prohibited subject. Keep looking and a good K98icon will find you.
