The Czech 98/22

This bean chucker be Czechoslovakia's Mauser model 98/22, which saw very limited service for it's parent country and I could only find a very limited amount of info on it.
*Note: I couldn't find a link to the exact edition of "Mauser Military Rifles of the World" used in this video, sorry.

Theyre great rifles. I have two and hope to have the parts accumulated to put together a third soon. By the way the VZ24 is a large ring Mauser, not small. I thought I heard you say it was small ring towards the beginning of the video.

Thanks for the correction, yeah some small details we’ll get wrong here and there.

Nice rifle , one I do not have yet . I do have a 1937 Vz24 , Chinese contract rifle

[@SurplusBoysChannel]

Well I guess that’s the next one on the list, right? -N

😅 nice share

I polished my Mosin-Nagant bolt and receiver , and keep it clean and lubed. It’s a fine as any Mosin out there. A Finnish sniper would love my Mosin. That said, not quite as smooth as my VZ 98/22…. Which I gave the same sort of love. Not even sure how fair the comparison is really.
I shot a really well done Enfield, that was like churning butter. I shot a bad one, and it was poorly maintained crap.
I agree on Enfield being the smoothest bolt action gun you can buy as surplus.

Rearward locking lugs for the win on smoothness. -N

Always liked them, but focused on collecting byf K98ks instead. 🤠

Short rifles are cool but overly long barrels I just have a soft spot for. -N

Could you tell me if the bayonets are specific to the 98/22 or will other bayonets from other mausers ? I just inherited one its a Turkish 98/22 I’m looking for a bayonet

[@SurplusBoysChannel]

Most Mauser bayonet are similar. The big difference is muzzle ring and if there is a hole for the cleaning rod. - P
