czech vz 24???

[aspen80]

Hi guys,

I just got a look at at ,what I think is a Czech vz24 Mauser.
It has a round shaped receiver medallian that says Czechoslovakia (sp).
The part that I don't know about is it doesn't have full length top wood.
the barrel shows back to the stock clamp. The guy that has it says its a 1933 vintage.
Could it still be a VZ? No pix yet

Thanks

Pics would be helpful. The Czech crest is a lion but they did mark some simply with the country name and factory code. The Czech 98/22 does not have wood going all the way to the barrel end. Neither does the VZ12/33 carbine.

I guess my eye sight is failing also.
On the receiver is CSSI
ZDRJOVKA
BRNO
May be this will make more sense till I get some pix

I have found after doing some research it is a 98/22 with the curved lettering.
At least I have a start
