K98s at Wideners in JC

[GKar]

Have seen these popping up the last day or two...

They've been adding new ones several times a day.. Thought there might be some interest...folks in the CMP bolt forums have been interested.

My wife has three dachshunds, owns 5 Walthers and one Mauser pistol, has a 1998 BMW Z3 as her mid-life crisis car, and has informed me that of all my old military hardware, she really only likes my k98...see a pattern forming?

Oh to have some $.

Oh to have some $.

Yeah, no kidding. They have a nice deal on used Sig P226 handguns right now.

For those in the know - are they priced right for the current market? I've always wanted one, but haven't spent the time researching all the ins and outs...I want a shooter, not a matching numbers safe queen, so the rifles available fit what I want. I haven't found gunbroker to be too useful as far as getting a clear understanding of the true market value of these rifles.

Thanks for your help.

Certainly not someone who is "in the know", but I've observed two things that may or may not count for anything:

A) they've moved a boatload of them in the last two weeks at that price

they seem to get a pretty good rap over in the CMP Bolt Action trader forums.

I went ahead a grabbed one...I'll post up some pics once I get the cosmo off.

This kills me that I couldn't snatch one because Widener's is in my backyard.
