Very nice BYF 43/44 HT sniper fake or real deal

[ser]

Hi my name is Ser and I'm new to this forum and a great fan of the K98 (and others).
I'm offered this very nice and clean looking BYF 43/44 HT sniper with Ajack scope from a collector.
I have a suspicion there's something wrong, but I can't lay my finger on it, I haven't that much experience in K98 snipers.
So I want to ask for your opinion about this smart looking K98. I know for instance after reading different posts on the forum that the extended safety is not the right on.

Thanks!

Safety is fake, whole rifle looks not legit to me.

The stock looks WAY too nice for a rifle that went to war 70 years ago in my opinion.

Fake scope rings and mounts, fake rifle all together.

+1. I am not comfortable with this rifle. Usually when one problem appears, many others start to follow (wrong safety, wrong stock, what else is wrong? etc.....).

Wow, so it's really that bad!! Incredible the (German) man who offers me this rifle is a collector of mainly German sniper rifles from WW1 and 2.
He travelles a lot to the Ukrain and according to him he find's a lot of these rifles there.

Do they converted an original K98 or is it an throw all together parts bin?

What will a K98 like this be worth? The seller wants $5115,00 (€4500,00) for it, as an original that is.

Yes, I don't want buy it now for sure! I'm very happy I put it on the forum and am gratefull for the uponions from the experienced members!
I was just wondering how much a thing like that is really worth, or in other words: for how much I was to get ripped off!

The seller is such a nice and polite guy, he even wanted to show me his sniper collection of 40 rifles,
Hell, because of people like him you can't trust anyone!

Where is he and his collection located?

Before I asked the experts on this forum about the rifle, I had asked the seller for more detailled picture's with the Ajack removed and which WAa are stamped in. I also asked if he could acknowledge that the rifle was an original issued one,
Till now he never answered my last questions, before that he immediatelly responded and even phoned my twice. So that's also why my suspicion rose more.

The search for a right one goes on!!

It's almost a lookalike the one I posted here, do they come from the same ehh maker or seller?

 

[Absolut]

I am afraid it is as you say (@ser).

Katana, you're right - I just wanted to post a fraud warning of this rifle, but you were faster than me.
