I think you will find that is quite a rare model, only made for a year or so before Haenel (as it was) stopped trading. You dont often see them for sale and when you do, they always make their money. Maybe it was a made keen ex-Haenel employee , who only needed that model to complete the set?? And. maybe he will finance the purchase by selling off half a dozen drum magazine repeaters cheap.. ?? You never know

Not the only Haenel with a "wrong-way-round" front sight.
Given that an FWB300S or Diana 75 is better and costs €250-300, that is insane pricing. But, ho-hum, that's people.
Well I now know where the Chinese manufacturers got inspiration for their early stock finishes from!
