Spandu 1913 Gew 98 value?

[43PU]

I have a chance to trade off one of my colt 1917s U.S marked for a Collectors grade Spandu 1913 Gew 98 all matching in perfect condition. What would something like that be worth?

Thanks

No real good answer to your question without detailed photos of both.

However you describe "collector's grade" and "perfect" means absolutely nothing to me. How much experience do you have with vintage military Mausers?

Personally I would keep the Colt 1917 not the 98Gew, condition being equal. But that's me.
