Great rifles, but for a variety of reasons not as popular as the technologically inferior (!) FWB. Prices reflect that based on my knowledge of achieved prices, there's always the chance someone will pay over the odds, you just have to be fortunate in connecting with that person.
I'm not so sure that's accurate. I had one new in 82 - only one cheekpiece. Also the LGR was the rifle to have then, before the 600 was launched anyway- it was so far in front, it really kicked butt - pretty much all the uk team used them Anyhoo
