[QUOTE="becker_atc, post: 2285015, member: 12903"] I looked it over best I could with a light and stepped out into natural light. Nothing jumped out besides it needs a good cleaning and oiling (was a very dry in the action). Theres is a bit of surface light rust on the floor plate and trigger guard that I think will scrub right off. I didnt have time as i was rushing home to toss it in the safe and make a mad dash to the plant for night shift. Paused long enough to snap a cell phone picture and toss a little oil on the bolt to see if it would slick up any. Few drops and she improved 100%, went from from having decent resistance of no lube to super smooth in the matter of working the action a few times with some fresh oil. Trigger is a bit heavy for my liking but not much creep and seems consistant for a likely worked over military trigger. As for being a VZ24 I assume it is, the crest looks to be ground off under the scope base and its not marked vz24 like some I have seen, BUT a friend of mine thats built several mausers over the years said that not all of them were marked. So IDK. Any other marks give it away? [/QUOTE]
