Big surplus drop at Classic

[huntingsocal]

Got email for "surplus bonanza" from Classic

Surprisingly decent prices on some things if you wanna roll the dice

Rolled the dice on a Hakim. That has been 1 surplus gun that has always had my eye and price seemed a tad high but reasonable based on the supply in the market on these. Hopefully I don't regret it.

Good luck, man they know how to spin the tales over there "sat in a warehouse in Ethiopia"

[C&Rfan89]

Gotta love the things they come up with.

Almost choked when I saw the vz52/57 price. It's funny because they can't get rid of the vz52 but those x39 chamberings go fast.

My two Hakim's, quite a lot of fun to shoot.

Those are some fairly obscure offerings. I can't recall ever seeing that broad of a selection all offered at once by a single vendor anytime recently. I am pretty maxed out on C&R, but the Czech rework K98 with the winter trigger is a really cool variant. Infact, I think just about everything in that ad would be great, but some of the prices are pretty steep.

Prices kinda steep. Hakim is slightly overpriced IMO

Agreed BUT an Egyptian Hakim from a warehouse in Africa = kinda cool

Sweaty Ben drew me in, I bit on the 52/57 just because I've been looking for one for a long time

will post pics when it arrives

Congrats, I really like the look of them. Maybe I should sell a few of the multiple SKS I have and get one 52/57.

Yikes that hakim price is way too much. Went to the SAR show and they were 600 to 800

+1, $999 is way too high. $600 to $750 is more appropriate.

The jewel of that might be the Yugo 98/48. Those are usually pretty nice, never saw much use. Looking at the prices Russian Captures are going for, if you want a shooter grade German 98, that might not be a bad deal. Lot more then the $279 I paid for mine, but everything cost more these days.

If the Czech K98s are matching #s I'd pull the trigger. Wondering how bad the bores are.

I'm surprised at the asking prices. The ninth rifle down, a German / Czech 98K, is technically a vz.98N, a series produced just after WW2 using a mix of German made and Czech parts. For this one they suggest an MSRP of $1,000, and a "price to you" of $700?

I've got a vz.98N that's in much better condition than the beater they're trying to sell. It was used as a parade rifle and not fired when I got it, and the receiver is marked dou.45 / Mod. 98 but with no waffenamt markings. Everything is pristine with a fine bluing job, and the extractor is still plum colored. In fact, the only appreciable wear is on the bolt handle.

I was thinking about parting with it for $450, but if they want $700 for what appears to be a so-so specimen, maybe I'm asking too little.

(Yeah, I know: worthless without pics but I'm not on any of those internet sites for photos. I'll send pics via private email when the time comes to those interested.)
