Theres a russian import SVD for sale at a local shop, appears to be one of the Tiger hunting carbines. They are asking $1500 for it.
Is this a good deal or no? I seem to remember them going for much more then that.

Edit: I hope mentioning this in a thread doesnt constitute as me trying to sell it.
If it does, please lock this thread and I'm sorry for the miss understanding.

Son of a bitch!  (Not you––just, in general).  [>:/]

I've been looking for one for well over a year on Gunbroker and have never seen one sell for less than $2000 for any condition.  I'd practically chew off my fingers for a deal like that.

Typically go $2500-to over-$3000 for NIB, unfired.

Let me know if you want to sell it after you get tired of it.


Edit:  Like they say above, make sure that it is NOT the Romanian version.  You can buy those all day for half of the price you quoted.  A real Russian Tiger is very distinctive and most I've seen have been made by Izmash.

Let me see if I can find some links for you.

My dealer is selling Romak's for $1099.  Last time I saw an actual Russian Dragunov/SVD, it was about $6k, and included a lined case for everything.
