Possible acquisition

A friend found this .22 LR rifle in an estate sale and has offered it to me for $1K. I haven't seen it, yet - all I have are these pictures. Can anyone identify the rifle and advise if the price is reasonable?

Looks like a variation of a Haenel KK Sport .22 like the one shown below.

$1K is a fair enough if it's got a mint bore and hasn't been otherwise modified (and if it's no rougher than what these pics show).  Worth a bit more if it's got an apature rear sight.

The broker just sent me some additional information. 
The barrel is marked f.l. kleinkaliberbusche. 
I looked it up online and found some some, but not enough, information.

Ballards may be weaker,
but they sure are neater!

Not a bad price, but not a bargain either. I'd call it just fairly priced. 

This one was $125 less, and better shape:

This one was $200 more:

Lots of them around, if you keep your eyes peeled.

Given the condition, stock "repair", etc., I'd say it's too much.
$800 would be a great price. . . . . .




for the seller.
