[QUOTE="sixlimericks, post: 2697712, member: 31247"] I was recently gifted what I believe is a bubba'd Czech Vz.24 (my first mauser) and am looking to correct it a bit. It's in what I believe to be a cut down k98 stock because of the large butt plate and the barrel band, but I'm not a mauser specialist. No handguard. The rifle was scrubbed of any crest and most markings, but there are a few left. The left side of the action reads "CESKOSLOVENSKA ZBROJOVKA, A.S., BRNO" (no VZ24). The serial is 4 digits, 57XX. It appears on the left side of the chamber, no prefix, and on the turned down bolt handle. The only other markings are a crest on the left side of the barrel under the wood line (I think it reads "dot / 18"), and the numbers 45 and 10 on the left side of the barrel. Along with what looks like a couple proof marks. The barrel looks good, rifling is strong with very little to no frost in the grooves. The main questions I have are : 1. Is this 8MM or 7MM? the magazine is roughly 3 1/2" long and 1" at the widest in the rear if that helps. 2. Any idea of year of manufacture? 3. Does the trigger guard and magazine floor plate look correct? It doesn't look right to me. If not correct, I'd like to find the right one. 4. Front sight correct? It's a fat triangle blade with the number 7 on it. 5. do I need to find a vz24 stock, or will a different type of mauser stock work? Any help is appreciated! Also, any vendors you know of that might have what I'm looking for. I've included a link to a small album for reference. Thanks.
