Re: Unusual M98 by Peter Hofer

I don't see how it could cost that much. The action, barrel and stock blank together would not cost more than $5K. Then the rest is the cost of labor forming and engraving the animals. Setting aside the formed bridges and bolt handle, I don't think the engraving could reach $100K. So would it cost $100 K for each of the square bridges and $100K for the bolt handle? I think that is extreme.

My estimate: $200K, and that includes a very hefty profit margin.
