Missed this one:

"EXCELLENT CZ MODEL 98/29 PERSIAN CONTRACT MAUSER Excellent and desirable BRNO CZ Model 98/29 Persian Contract Mauser rifle, complete with matching bayonet and original 1934 document, and slings. All matching numbers in Farsi, including bayonet. Persian crest on receiver. No import marks. Original factory document shows test fire shots, and original information in Czech on left side, and Farsi on right side. A very rare and complete example of its kind. Serial Number: 04544. Condition: Immaculate unissued condition, 99% bluing, and bright polish to stock, appearing unfired since factory test fire in 1934. Bayonet also in mint unissued condition. Document is nicely preserved in rigid sleeve protector. "

It's sold $1700. I hesitated due to (1) no importer stamp is weird, could be dealer sample but also could be removed by someone,,,, and (2) previous consecutively numbered pair sold $2700 also impacted me. I was calculating that pair was $2700, then how much should be this one... Decision had to be made in 3 seconds, so I missed.
