In 2016, I had opportunity to buy a 1941 S/42 "widow" Mauser in 95% condition for $1600. It was a police/stolen gun auction. I passed it up to buy a strawed 1937 Mauser in 90% from the same place for $1300. I was looking for an all-matching shooter and I just couldn't afford to take both at the same time. Still have the 1937, but its really much better than a shooter so it doesn't get fired much...
