Found S/147/G

[Kar98guy3]

Came across this Recently. Just needing some info and to see if this would be a good addition to my wwii k98 collection. Also if anyone knows a lot about this please feel free to let me know. I know the stock isn’t right but every thing matches but. Thanks guys.

Any pics of the bayonet lug, lower band, and stock?

Here ya go. All I have.

I had hoped that the stock had been a wartime replacement. No luck.
Is the lower band numbered?

The metal appears to be originally matching.The rear handguard support has the R side milled off.

Almost looks broken off

Metal does look all original. Stock is obviously not though. My guess would be the original stock was badly broken or something, and the current stock was used as a replacement.

Stock looks like a Yugo capture stock that's being used as a replacement. Rear band doesn't appear to be the earlier contoured style like one would expect, maybe a replacement as well? Metal numbering shown in pics looks good

I have a an early waa214 Sauer walnut stock in my parts bin that would make it look better

Well I’m thinking about buying it. What would be a good price on her?

Something like this is hard to put a value on. A completely original and decent S/147G is quite a valuable gun. However the stock replacement really does a number on that.

Personally I think anything over $1500 is too much. But thats just me.
