Default Pricing opinions

Kiwishooter..with the greatest respect, it is considered very poor form form commenting on pricing of items of others. Additional, your statements are wrong in fact and in definition. These rifles are extrtemely hard to find in the condition like 'johno's (I have seen pics)..most have been thoroughly flogged down here, though, because they were always very expensive relative to other makes except Sako in the 50's and 60's, some have enjoyed "Safe Queen" status. Actually a mint one fitted with Ausinel mounts and a 6x Pecar sold here last year for $2000...as against that, one fitted with a worn out s/s 17 AH barrel just sold at Xmas for $500, and we all know 'you get what you pay for'.....be it NZ USA or Lesser Asia (Australia)
