The VK-98, Before There Was Bubba

[artd]

Only a serious collector would shell out $4000.00+ for this rifle. This is not a joke. It is a rare end-of-the-war Volksgewehr, (People's Rifle).

Forget that. You could have a matching numbers G43 with Rob's shooter's kit installed and all original parts stored away for less money than that.

I don't know anything about the value of that rifle.....but damn that thing is ugly.

...and just so someone doesn't think this is a joke.

Ranks up there with the Liberator, a wartime production gun made fast and cheap that now costs an arm and a leg. Very interesting to say the least.

How many of these do you think have been sold as merely bubba k98 specials in the past?
