THE SAGA GOES ON; SO WILL SOMEONE TELL ME: why is it impossible to sell a Mark X with a nice stock custom stock for another 150 guidas ? Compare the two and tell me ! Both IMO are great rifles <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/help.gif" alt="" /> These actions are great. <img src="/ubbthreads/images/graemlins/confused.gif" alt="" />
I would imagine it all depends on the quality of the so called "custom" stock. Lets see a photo of what you have.
The fact that this Model 51 does not come with a stock, trigger and bottom metal of course makes it less desireable in many peoples eyes. I have seen Model 50s sell in good condition in the $375 range, and there is no way a person is going to put a trigger, stock, and bottom metal on this rifle for under $100.00.
