I just went to a local shop looking for a Kar98k but all of the ones they had there had forced match bolts and there was one Yugo that stood out with matching bolt, receiver, and stock. It had "Preduzece 44" on it and it looked like a very clean rifle. This one had a straight bolt and there was another one there that had a curved bolt. Is that common? They were asking $225 for the one I was interested in and I asked one of the guys there if they would take $150 for it but he said that the manager probably wouldn't. How much are these rifles worth? The store felt very overpriced with a Chinese SKS on consignment for $499 and their forced match Kar98k's for $325-375.

What do you guys think? Is it worth it or should I walk away? How much should I offer him?
