From what I read, these were rebuilt/refurbished Vz24s that were turned over as reparations. Well, that's pretty interesting. Had to go look in person. Both had mismatch bolts. The shop headspaced them before putting them up for sale (so far I've never had an issue thankfully). However, mismatch on a rebuilt piece doesn't surprise me.
I nabbed one. Put it on layaway. Blue is decent. A little thin here and there on some edges, but looks good. Wood has a few dings, and some scratches. Stock matches the receiver, and appears to be original to the rifle. The handguard is a Yugo replacement... The wood is different. Looks the same as used on M24/47s and 48s. Has the side slings, I'm guessing what was a unit disk in the stock. Original crest is gone, replaced by the Yugoslavian crest with M24/52c stamped under it. All parts machined. Missing front sight hood. Not fretting that.
Pics will come after I pay it off, and give it a once over.
Pretty excited about it. I've been hitting it good with Mausers lately. Good thing I like them.
