That went on right up to the 1990's. I bought a bunch back then for $70-80. I took the nicest one, a minty German first year, all matching numbers, and butchered it to make a "hunting" rifle. Still have it, looks like a gun from the original Planet of the Apes.

They were beautifully finished rifles.
