Will tell you right up front that I know little or nothing about Mauser rifles so I am at the mercy of the collectors here. I have a decent group of M1's and I wanted a German rifle to go with them just for the sake of having one. Here is the question. I have a chance to buy a 98k with byf 44 marked receiver and mismatched parts. Finish is good and markings have not been peened. Drawback is that it is in a sporter stock. Priced at $250 out the door. I know that pics would help a great deal, but rifle is in the store so cannot get pics. Is this a good price and since I don't THINK it would take more than changing the stock to get it back in "wartime" condition, how much trouble would that be to change the stocks if I can find one? Thanks for any info.
