Yugo 27/47, no import mark.

**Anzac15** · 01-14-2017 01:12 AM

Found this today. Yugo icon

Mausers are plentiful here, and I tend to overlook them, as they're always pristine and probably were never used. But this one caught my eye...it has definitely seen use. Finish is worn a bit, nice patina overall. It is not import marked anywhere. Receiver is scrubbed, stock has been sanded quite a while ago (flash makes it look newer) Side swivel is plugged. It definitely is different from the cleaner, 'unissued' examples I always encounter at the gun shows. Have a look.

A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered. Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping. In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail. I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!). CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.

Or an FN or Yugo icon

built M24.
I'm aware of the pre 68 imports, but I personally have never seen a 24/47 without a mark, and in such a less than new condition.

I would vote for the Yugo icon

M24 as its origin, or perhaps from the FN factory. If I've ever seen an FN I didn't recognize it as being marked differently.

I believe the Czech icon

VZ-24 shares the full-length Mauser action with the K98 icon

, whereas the M24 and M48 varieties were based on the intermediate length action. The difference in length is very small.

No expert here, just basing this one having read and seen.

Looks like a typical import that was "improved" by someone about 10 years ago . The stock sanding and the light grinding on the receiver and barrel do not look that old , just not well kept . The 59 stamp also looks like it was done not to long ago , and should not be there.
