    Where to find original snipers?

    I just want a turret mount rifle. Worse case I’ll go after a Yugo/Balkan war sniper to be my cope k98 sniper.

    Where to find original snipers?

    Just curious. I've always been fascinated with K98 snipers, and after discovering ACME (that I later searched here, and found out they're fakes), I'm curious where to find some. I have a distrust in Gunbroker, and most other online sites due to fakes. I would appreciate any help. Rather not get...

    Rarity of a S/42G?

    Yeah, it happens. I know other things like the back of my hand... I'm no expert at users yet lol. The only other guess I'd have is if its an RC... with no import marks, could it be a Vietnam-era bring back? The only problem is no papers or anything.

    Rarity of a S/42G?

    I feel stupid. Well, guess neither of the guns are worth getting. Unless a non-import marked, RC is worth while at all lol.

    Rarity of a S/42G?

    I got offered an S/42G K98 that matched the floor plate. I was wondering what the market rate would be. It does not look refinished, and it is in good condition. Also, what's the reasoning behind a non-matching floorplate? Possibly a rework? It also does not have import marks, nor is an "X" for...

    Noob Question: identifying a real K98 sniper?

    Honestly, the title. I’ve always wanted to maybe get one, but with the slew of fakes and trolls out there, I wonder where one would truly be. Would love some knowledge to know what to look for, and if there’s a guide on here I’ve yet to find it… or I’m blind lol. Thanks :)

    Blueprints?

    Hey everyone, Would there be interest if I posted PDFs of some blueprints I have? I got scans of some original documents for some things. Believe I have a P08 luger one somewhere. It’s bit of a odd question, and some forums go a bit “mad” over this stuff. If not I understand. Thanks :)

    I’m definitely interested in learning more. Do you have more photos?

    Help: 1938 42, but reject?

    It wasn’t matching at all, and it’s a PW Arms import. We were wrong but hey he knows now!

    Help: 1938 42, but reject?

    He went high and said 1300 based off of gunbroker. Seller was honest and said he doesn’t know the market and that gunbroker over prices things. Once I got confirmation here, I gave him the story on it and a real value. Said like 600 tops if he really wanted to maximize the value lol.

    Help: 1938 42, but reject?

    I was going to get this rifle as a shooter. I thought the “star” or “asterisk” was like early WW1 Mausers being built out of rejects. Sucks that it’s really just an RC. Seller appreciated the info and ended up just keeping it.

    Help: 1938 42, but reject?

    Nah. Don’t got one of those. I told the seller the story about it and he seemed fine with it. Said he’d rather keep it since he’s had it for years then.

    Help: 1938 42, but reject?

    So pretty much avoid it. Damn shame. it looked nice too. Worse case I’ll trade a pistol for it lol.

    Help: 1938 42, but reject?

    thing is, it is not import marked. Says it isn’t marked at all. While that’s the case, he isn’t asking a whole lot. Just it shows some red flags but it also doesn’t. I’d treat it as a shooter primarily lol.

    Help: 1938 42, but reject?

    Hi everyone, I’m trti NGto get info on a rifle. It’s been refinished and the bolt is polished and white. Everything but the front band matches. Currently trying to determine if this is worth getting or not. Would appreciate any help! I’ll try and get more photos up but phone is currently...

    Non-import 1943 Izhevsk

    More photos would be nice. Can probably get better information on the stock marks and elsewhere if you got them.

    PTR 44 purchase opportunity

    Sorry for the delayed response. I think it's a neat idea, but considering the average quality of a PSA gun (let's be real, they are bottom of the barrel), it's likely to be subpar and serve as a mere "consolation" for people. Are you expecting them to manage AK development, which has been prone...

    PTR 44 purchase opportunity

    Let’s just say when I picked it up, it felt really poor quality still. I almost cut my hand on it, just because of how poorly built it was. Like it was neat for sure… but I really wasn’t impressed. Youre better off getting the PTR or a kit build. Honestly. Or begging DK Production for it.
