Bought my First Mannlicher Schoenauer!

Well, the GCA are rubbish as a support group (see the "No Name Steyr M1892" thread), and made me want to get another rifle. Well, I've actually been working out the finer parts of the deal for the last week, payment made yesterday, rifle given to the dealer to post today. Should have it by the end of the month.

It's a M1910 in 9.5x57. Features are takedown, and the flip up tang peep sight. It's got a broken front sight, but i'm hoping the spare is still in the grip cap. If not, anyone want to sell me theirs? I think the rear sights have been opened a bit too, which works for me as my eyes aren't the best.
It'll be getting a new recoil pad. I haven't seen really any of the barrel markings but will upload all pictures of it i have, including the ones from it's for sale ad.

Serial Number is 10354, what year is this?

Seller said the last time he used it was in 1995 on a Kudu @ 150 yards. He brought it over from Swaziland. His grandfather bought it, then it was his dads, then his, now mine

I paid $1600AUD posted to here ($1250 US), is this a fair price? It's the lowest i've seen one, there doesnt seem to be any cracks in the wood.
