To many variables to give an accurate guess. What is he asking for it?

Offer him a PB&J sandwich then try to post some pics.

If he takes the offer don't back out.

First it needs to be established if it's legit or all other conversation is mute, very few Finnish captured snipers were imported to the US and none came with optics, so any optics, mounts or bases would need as much or more scrutiny as the rifle.

....So...... :pointdown:

Would love to see pic.s of it!

"Taking offers" has a smell to it! :big shock:

You can't even lowball without knowing value!

Anymore word on the PE?

An example of the reason for the skepticism is: a local guy here has a "Finn" captured PU sniper for sale, I saw it at a few gunshows over a year ago at $700+ and even told the seller that claimed it was legit that it was a fantasy piece.

The new owner/seller is now and has been trying to resell it at $450 OBO and it does have an WW2 original scope.

Problem with what was a really nice "Finn" captured Tula rifle is it's dated 1939 and PU production started in 1942. :vomit1:
