Pls help me find Swede Marksman 96

[Yo]

Hey folks. For the last 6 mos I've been looking for a m96 Swedish Mauser that has the target diopter sights fitted to it. Often called the "target" or "marksman model". Usual sources are sold out, and I haven't seen one at the online auctions.

If you know of a collector that will part with one, or if you see one at a gunshow, please let me know, and pass on the seller's info.

The other option is a m96 that has already been D&T'd for sights, but this would probably end up being more expensive once I buy the sights.

This is what I'm looking for:

Check Samco Global also, (http://www.samcoglobal.com/rifles.html).

Or how about this? An orginal Swede Sniper!

Sometimes if you keep your eyes peeled for it, you can find just the diopter sight set for sale at places like Sarco/Samco or in Gunlist...I have found them at the Topeka KS gunshows at the Expocenter there, on RARE occassion.
Good luck--normal cost for the sight itself seems to run 200$.
