Caliber 8x57 (8mm Mauser). Serial number 6757V3. Barel length 23 1/4". Standard VZ-24 sights with Czech front sight protector. Original matching numbers on receiver, stock and bolt. Cocking piece is numbered "93". No visible import markings. Non import marked lion crested rifles with original matching bolts and stocks like this are very hard to find and are highly desirable for Mauser collectors.

Receiver top has fully intact & bold Czech lion crest. Left side of receiver has Czech "E (Lion) 36" acceptance stamp for 1936. Blue finish. Walnut stock set with bottom mounted sling swivels & plugged wrist swivel. The plugged wrist swivel is widely believed to be a WW2 German modification and it is entirely possible this rifle is a World War II GI bringback. No visible German markings or other traits. Right side of stock disc has unit marking that reads "2HN/1393" likely for Czech border guards. Cleaning rod present.

CONDITION: stock set shows scattered finish wear, some small gouges, dings and handling marks. Metal retains perhaps 20% original blue with overall fading to gray, scattered light oxidation, edge wear, some light dings on front of floorplate and front band. Action functions properly when hand cycled. Good plus bright bore with some scattered light frosting but strong rifling. Will ship to FFL or FFL-curio.
