G'day RedSky7,
On average a fair condition RC would pull between 9-1500 these days, although a couple of dealers are artificially elevating prices by advertising rifles at stupid prices then listing them as sold. They then advertise a similar rifle ay high prices looking for a sucker and sadly do sometimes find one. Auction prices, as yoshie said, can be a good guide but "auction fever" does come into play a bit as well as bidders like me looking at very specific models to fill a place in a collection might pay well over the odds. Your rifle, on the other hand, sounds wrong, or may be a rare experimental, the problem being the K98k did not exist in 1931 so you either have a Standard Modell or e pre-production development rifle. You need to put up some pics of all markings, to determine exactly what you have, Cheers.
