Hey guys, i'm new on this forum, but I figured you guys would have good ideas on such a common gun. I was looking to purchase a K98 to shoot at the range, preferably German made but i'd take a Yugo or some other to save money. Are there any good gun shops around the north shore to buy one? Thanks

Help for K98

thanks Jon, I went there today, but it was more of a collector's item rather than a shooter. I guess I'll just have to keep snooping around for one, you know how these old military guns go. Thanks for the help though, I appreciate it
You're welcome. Did FS have any M48's or you going with the straight K98? How about Collectors in Stoneham? I haven't checked their used page.
Or you could get your C&R and order a $200 K98![[wink]](/xen/styles/default/xenforo/smilies.vb/002.gif "Wink [wink]")

FS had one M48, but it was a collector's item in a way since all the serial numbers lined, even the stock I believe, so that wouldn't make a good shooter. Also, I sort of had my heart on a straight K98 with the Yugo as a sort of "back-up". I did also go to Collectors in Stoneham, same story, they had all collector guns/over-priced (well over $300). But what is a C&R, and how do you get it?
Start here for info on the C&R

Bascically, it's a Federal Firearms license for Curios and Relics designated as a 03 FFL. It will allow you to purchase firearms which are 50 years or older or those firearms classified as a Curio and Relic by the BATFE. You can purchase out of state (mail order) and have it delivered to your door without having to pay an 01 FFL for a transfer. Which means you can buy direct from Interordnance, SOG, Allan's Armory, Empire Arms to name a few. Plus, many dealers such as MidwayUSA will give you a dealer discount if you have the C&R.
Go read and and when you're ready, ask lots of questions. We'll all help you.

Under a $100 [shock]??? WHERE???
Century (occasionally) and a few others. Check out Shotgun News.
Granted, they're not that cheap all the time, but frequently they can be found just over $100, and sometimes under. Century had Yugo 24/47's for $89.95 a couple of months ago.
