I guess that makes sense, but he also told me the same thing that for some time now the prices of 303's have dropped significantly and fully wooded ones can once again be bought well under $1000.
In saying that, there are some years/variants that are worth more than others, so it comes down to what you are buying. I hate to think how many rare models were converted into sporters, but Im told many collectors are buying the things and converting them back to the original wood.
