Erm, dont know if i missed this, but i was browsing through WGC and they list the Tanaka Kar 98 G-Version as Sold Out. Does this mean its gone forever?

In all likelyhood they will not do another run of the G version. If I read the companies patterns correctly they seem to do a "run" of guns other than their stable items like the Kar98 and then they do not repeat them. I just sold a new G and it killed me to let it go but the price was right.

Yeah but the only version of the Kar98 i have seen is the G version(Other versions being long sold out), so it would seem they are abandoning the Kar98, or making another version

the G version is the newest version if i remember correctly, that or the mountain trooper (basically the same gun)

tanaka has a tendency to let the guns stagnent for a while before making another run of a gun, so it may be a year or so after most shops run out before more hit the market...

Sigh i just want one eventually, and i don't want them to fall into a classic category where they start costing hugely inflated prices, espcially since my current sniper rifle plans dont include it.

it would be stupid of them to stop production of this gun.. its one of the most popular tanakas..

but at the same time.. remember the new power limits that are being enforced in Japan?

<{POST_SNAPBACK}>

that would basically mean they have to stop production of ALL their rifles, not just the kar

[Azulsky]

Im going to go with they might be releasing a new version(oooo) or more likely they might just not be making them right now. Dang i could afford one but the gun i want 2 sell needs 2 little parts to make it sale worthy

that could be the case..
Or a form of gas/flow restrictor is added to the system.

AND their NBB revolvers too...

I just hope they're going to make an afforable Lee Enfield instead.
