[QUOTE="SlammerG_89, post: 1668772, member: 10116"] If you had the riot shotgun or trench variant of the model 97 it would be more but even the plane jane model like yours should be worth 300-500. Here is some info on the mauser: The G33/40 was issued to Alpine ski troops. Fitted with a ZF41 scope it would have been issued to a marksman for short distance sniper duties. The G33/40 was only in production for 3 years, from 1940-1942. It was produced by Waffen Werke Brunn, Brunn. It fired the exact same 7.92mm round, and had the same Mauser 98 action. However, that is where the similarities end. The G33/40 had several different parts that were not matching with the K98. These included: the bolt, stock, cleaning rod, sight hood cover, upper hand guard, barrel bands, sling, and even the bayonet. Too bad its not all matching as they are very rare and go for upwards of 3,000. [/QUOTE]
