riflejunky Posted September 25, 2017 Report Share Posted September 25, 2017 (edited) I was hoping someone on this forum could provide a rational valuation on Pre Sample factory Sterling MKV. The gun is in pristine condition and has the studs for mounting an optics base.

BDMERC Posted September 25, 2017 Report Share Posted September 25, 2017 I sold one about two weeks ago, new condition without the rail studs, for $8K. Both the Post and Pre Sample Sterlings were of limited import compared to other foreign subguns of that era. HK did what they could to limit the Sterling's popularity in the U.S. by buying Sterling and putting them out of business. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riflejunky Posted September 26, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 26, 2017 Thanks for the info. Very interesting about the history of Sterling and the HK connection. Any other info provided is much appreciated. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BDMERC Posted September 29, 2017 Report Share Posted September 29, 2017 (edited) MKV with studs is rare in a real Sterling (Post or Pre Sample), at least in the U.S.. You could buy the studs and install them. Transferable DLO/Andrewski/Melton MKV builds were the best -correct narrow slotted tubes, original parts, and most had studs installed. They were even more quiet than the real thing. http://www.reocities.com/pentagon/barracks/5220/SAPriceList.htm Edited September 29, 2017 by BDMERC forgot link Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
riflejunky Posted September 29, 2017 Author Report Share Posted September 29, 2017 I am aware of the DLO/Andrewski/Melton MKV builds. There is a dealer in macon that took payment on one and has yet to produce any gun. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
