vz24
The vz. 24 rifle is a bolt-action carbine designed and produced in Czechoslovakia from 1924 to 1942. It was developed from the German Mauser Gewehr 98 line, and features a very similar bolt design. The rifle was designed in Czechoslovakia shortly after World War I, to replace the Vz. 98/22, also a Czech-designed derivative of the Gewehr 98. The vz. 24 featured a 590 mm (23.2 in) barrel which was shorter and considered more handy than the 740 mm (29.1 in) Gewehr 98 barrel. The vz. 24 was chambered in 7.92×57mm Mauser like its predecessors.
Throughout the late 1920s and into the 1930s, Czechoslovakia exported hundreds of thousands of vz. 24 rifles to various countries across the globe, with variants chambered in the original 7.92×57mm Mauser, 7×57mm Mauser, and 7.65×53mm Argentine. These included contracts for several South American countries, most of which were 7 mm or 7.65 mm guns. Around 40,000 rifles were sent to Spanish Republican forces during the Spanish Civil War. Nearly 200,000 rifles were purchased by China, seeing action in the Second Sino-Japanese War, which became part of World War II. Iran purchased vz. 24 rifles, along with two other variants, through the late 1920s and 1930s, and later produced their own copies in the late 1940s.
Germany acquired hundreds of thousands of the rifles in 1939 when they occupied Czechoslovakia and pressed them into service under the designation "Gewehr 24(t)"; during the occupation, production of the rifles continued until 1942, when the factories were converted to the German-designed Karabiner 98k. During this period, several hundred thousand rifles were also built for the Romanian Army. Vz. 24 rifles saw extensive service during World War II in multiple theaters, predominantly with the German and Romanian armies on the Eastern Front. Lithuanian vz. 24s, which had been captured during the German invasion in 1941, were later seized by Soviet forces, who in turn used them to arm the Viet Cong during the Vietnam War in the 1960s.

Looking to rehome my Czech VZ24 Mauser. Rifle is in good shape and overall a solid shooting rifle. Included are a Vz24 bayonet with scabbard and a couple boxes of 8mm Yugo surplus ammo. Would like to get $400 or trade for a mil spec SKS or Makarov pistol. Thank you
I have vz24 that has been sporterized. As you see from the pics it appears that the barrel has been chopped and a few adjustment made to the sights.
Along with the vz24 there is a .22lr barrel insert, bolt, mag plate and 2 mags.
I have original sights and some hardware to go with.
I'm asking...
I’ve had this for about a year, was going to be a wall piece, but have since purchased something else. This is 8mm (I have four or five rounds I’ll include free of charge if I can find them).
The Rampant lion is fully in tact, along with numerous marks and stamps. More photos upon request.

I have a VZ 24 that if I did my research correctly was made in 1938. It's a Czech version of the Mauser. It is bolt action. It's chambered in 8 mm Mauser and has a 5 round box mag. I have not had a chance to shoot it because I don't know any place here that I can go for free. I will include 45...
Czech made VZ24 rifle made with a light profile barrel and chambered for 7x57 Mauser. Sold to a Brazil and used mostly by police.
This example is a mixmaster. Metal finish is mostly gone and there is pitting at/below the stock line. The receiver and stock match, but the bolt and some other metal...
Czechoslovakian VZ24 mauser in 8mm. This is an old WWII ear rifle with a scrubbed crest. Some of these Czech mausers went to Romania to assist on the eastern front during the war. This is a clean and nice mauser to add to a collection.
