Mauser K98 byf 45, Need Help with Analysis/Valuation

[Flying10uk]

Known as a "Kriegs model", late war production K98 without bayonet bar fitting and a few other refinements like a cleaning rod etc, a sort of spartan basic model I guess. I believe it did differ between manufacturers on how "spartan" it was.

Does any-one know how rare these "Kriegs models" are? I don't believe that I have ever noticed any for sale here in the U.K.. I seem to remember reading somewhere that they were only produced for about the last 6-8 months of the war and not all the manufacturers switched over to this basic model.

Scarce rifles. Most have been modified, bubba'd, etc. I personally like the BYF Mausers. And this one is correct. If you find one in 7.92 Kurz, we want to see it! Very rare bird!
