My LGS has a mint M76 223 w/ a wood stock and 2 30rnd mags there asking 1995.00 wondering if this is a fair price?

2000 sounds a little bit high in my opinion, i paid 1000 for mine several years ago and recently sold it for around 1500. The M76's are nice rifles but mags are hard to find, plus expensive and spare parts can be few and far between. It's my understanding the bulgarian polymer 223 mags can be tweaked to fit but i never got around to trying it. the plastic butt plate has a tendency to crack with time and like other M76 parts near impossible to find. great rifles and probably among the best AK's produced.

someone has a M76 for 1600 on sturmgewehr if you're interested.

That's high imo... NIB? They really are great rifles.
