Those prices astound me considering the mods on the rifles. Go figure.

Makes me feel better about the M54 30WCF I got last year for about 25% of the 250-3000 price. It has two holes in the rear of the receiver and the Lyman 48's staff was missing, but everything else is in great shape and the bore is in pristine condition. I wanted a shooter so none of the shortcomings mattered to me at all. I fitted another staff to the Lyman. Although it is backwards (it came off a M98 Mauser sight), it works just fine using it as a ghost ring aperture. And, the rifle is a real shooter! I just couldn't get a whitetail to cooperate when I was carrying it last season.
