| If you mean 6,000 Euros (ie. approx. $9,000) then I think it is not a bargain. You can buy a whole lot of rifle in the USA for that amount and even in France or Belgium there are a few riflemakers that can fit a beautiful custom rifle into that budget.

| Someone out there correct me if I'm wrong but these old German or Japanese made Weatherby MK-V's are not particularly valuable. A quick check on GunBroker would verify the asking prices. If it were me I wouldn't pay more than $1500.00 for a perfect "Used" MK-V with a big name German or Austrian scope of MODERN manufacture.
You could buy a brand new MK-V from the Weatherby Custom Shop with every option other than cosmetic fluff for about $3500.00 or $2000 for a new Deluxe. Figure a S&B, Kahles, Zeiss, Swarovski scope with rings at about $2000. |

| The sauer versions are a lower production item and in demand by weatherby collectors--- all 3 of them  , I would not think it would sell for more than $2000.US |

| but you must remember that 2000$ in usa and norway isn't the same.
lets take an example(rem 700 cdl): msrp in usa: 931$ costs in norway: 8990nok 8990nok = 1761,43$ |
