Suspect a lot of guys bought them not knowing the recoil...which is not bad IMHO, but certainly more than a 30-06 shooter is used to. After enjoying a few rounds and calcing the price of bullets and powder, they decide to sell the rifle.
I'd say the going price on line is between $550 and $600 for a good used one, so you're be getting a very good deal.
I bought an Alaskan (20" barrel), and am very impressed with the cartridge/rifle. The 23" African is a beautiful rifle, which cannot be said about the ALaskan.
