K43 Qve 45

I have the opportunity to purchase this rifle but I am new to k43s and was wondering what everyone’s thoughts were on this one
Rifle is appears matching either stamped or electric penciled with the serial
It appears very clean just want to see what everyone else thinks

Looks very nice. How about a serial number on the stock?

Rifleman016 · Feb 11, 2025

Matching as well

Prime example...hard to improve on in my opinion.

Very nice looking rifle. I would say that is a top tier collector piece as long as the price is not absurd.

What would be absurd pricing

bigwagon · Feb 11, 2025

I can't define an absurd price, but I know it when I see it.

Sneetch · Feb 11, 2025

3.5k - 4k fair price I'd say. If I owned it, I wouldn't let it go for under 4.

Sneetch · Feb 11, 2025

Prices have softened a bit on g/k43's. I wouldn't sell it at all in this market.

mdarnell19 · Feb 11, 2025

All I can say is what I would pay. And that would be around $4k

Very nice L block... One thing of note. You can always tell an orig. for what ever reason this is the only block where BLM used a block capitol letter on the stock. The rest are all script.

Very odd they did this just in the qve45 range.. Pre dates the no letter block qve45 this is the end of the 44 letter range. capitol L on the wood.. means its good.

Damn, where are these nice Lubeck K43s coming from? That's an excellent rifle, that stock hasn't been hit with sandpaper like so many others have. The current market has slowed and prices have dropped a bit, I agree that ~$4k is probably a fair price for this one. If you do pick it up, I don't think I'm alone in wanting to see some really nice pictures of it!
