A WWII German sniper rifle is at once VERY rare. If you chance upon one at a gun show, depending on the condition of the piece, it can fetch at least $1,500. And THAT would be the low-end price for a Mauser KAR 98 (bolt action) with an original scope in perhaps rough condition. You would have to be very careful that the rifle itself had the original scope (Zeiss optik, or Henseldt type) matched to the rifle. Now the rifle itself should also have matching numbers on every piece in order for the value to be justified. There have been numerous post-war-to-present Mausers fitted with scopes and the unwary buyer not knowing this can purchase a "re-conditioned" Mauser fitted with an original German scope, but the value of such a rifle will be reduced as that sniper was not truly original. I have seen these going for $1,300. But an original GI bring-back in above average shape and un-tampered with will bring upwards of $3,000.
Actually there was no best sniper rifle during world war 2 because it was never tested. Different countries used different weapons.
The Mauser es340b was a single shot .22 long rifle. It was made too look and feel like a Mauser 98K. It is not a sniper rifle. It is a target rifle.
The Sniper places his hat on the muzzle of his rifle ! Legit answer.
During World War 1 the sniper rifles were mostly the standard issue rifle that had a telescopic sight or Scope installed. The three main standard issue rifles that were used and modified for sniper detail were: the British Lee Enfield, The German Gewehr 98, and the American 1903 Springfield.
the Kentucky LongRifle
price on such a weapon would depend on originality of parts to that era, and overall condition of rifle and scope. i would guess at $1500 +/-
It has been found that a German DSR 50 rifle is a sniper rifle. This is not something that would be readily available to the public, and extensive research has not provided any prices for this rifle. One would likely find the price by inquiring through a rifle association.
It is for the price.
To get sniper rifle you must have a commando which has a sniper rifle and a knife !!
