Value of an all-correct Gustloff bcd G43?
I have a Gustloff bcd G43 that I am thinking of selling to help pay for my Grandson’s college, but I have no idea as to the going prices for these rifles. To the best of my knowledge all parts are matching and the stock has not been sanded. If my calculations are correct, this rifle was made in July of 1944. As the Buchenwald factory was bombed out-of-existence in August 1944, this was one of the last Gustloff G43 rifles made!!
The bore is a bit dark and somewhat frosted, but the lands and grooves are strong (about a 6 on a scale of 1 to 10). The stock is in Very Good condition, with only a few dings that show it has been there and done that. I have not fired this rifle (who would??), and there are no import marks that I can see. I have taken a number of photos that may be seen on IMGUR. Unfortunately, I have not yet learned to present them in a logical, orderly fashion in that format!!
Please use the following two links:

I would greatly appreciate comments on this rifle’s characteristics and value from those of you who are experts on the G43.
My Thanks and Cheers,
