Falkes advertised 2010 - 2011

Here are pics I've gathered of Falkes auctioned in the second half of 2010 until the beginning of December 2011. To save time I've just "dumped" them onto the page unsorted.

One interesting thing to come from this exercise is the number of model 80 and 90 underlevers to find their way onto the market (mainly but not exclusively in Germany): by my reckoning 9 x mod 90s and 10 x mod 80s = a total of 19 in approx 18 months.

Two years ago there might have been five or six offered for auction in a year and two years before that perhaps three or four. It may be that this forum has stimulated some interest, but perhaps the global economic downturn (though not especially in Germany) is more likely the cause.

Also, despite the volume coming up for sale, underlever prices have held up fairly well (around 250-400+ euros for rifles with either a rear or diopter sight). No doubt this level of demand is fuelling the supply. The question is, for how long?!

Anyway, here are the pics:
