Mauser K98 springer replica questions

Been a minute since I popped in here. Some of you may remember a post I made about a collection I'm selling. I've found a couple more hidden rifles.
One being a Leyla 2.0 and one being this Mauser replica. Seems it is a Diana? Is that true?

I found this one in a soft bag in yet another safe that I finally got to sorting.

I've seen the PCP version of this and have been able to find prices and whatnot. Can't find a lot on the spring p. version. Is this a good rifle quality-wise and/or how much they go for used? This one has a scope like every other rifle my dad owned. :p Is there anything I should know about it?

Hope you are all doing well!
 
The Mauser K98 springer was made by Diana. It's mechanically a 460 with a few cosmetic changes, and how the under lever locks into place is different. The muzzle is threaded for 1/2x20, but in loosening the thread protector the front sight may become loose also. I have no idea as to their current value, but they're a fun gun to shoot... Open sights 😁😉

Oh interesting. All I could find were some kinda mixed feelings about it (one of which would be that front sight being loose haha). I love older firearms and iron sights...enough to have had a C&R license to make my collecting of Mosins, Krags, and other rifles easier to obtain or trade/sell, so I thought this was pretty cool. Heavy as hell like the real one too. :LOL: Thanks much for the info!
