Hey guys, for the last few months I've been keeping my eyes open for a solid, shooter grade G/K 43 for a reasonable price. It'll be my first of the breed and I've wanted one for a long time. I was looking for something that presents well and is substantially original (perhaps a few mismatched parts and/or lightly sanded stock) but not so nice that I wouldn't want to take it out and shoot it occasionally (with a shooter kit installed, naturally).
I've run across this AC45 K43 and the seller says it's a tackdriver and a fantastic shooter. He replaced the handguard and says the rifle itself is totally mismatched. He says all parts are original and not reproductions. Unfortunately someone modified the pistol grip area of the stock as well. The magazine has no finish left, it seems. Technically this rifle very much falls into the shooter category that I wanted (though perhaps too much so!). He's asking $2100 shipped. Does that seem reasonable for this rifle? I thought I might be well served to get other opinions and input on this one. Thanks!
