Popping up out of deep lurk.
A number of years ago I bought a VZ-24 that was one of 15,000 made for the Brazilian rebels of 1932 by Brno. It was in the standard 7x57 for Brazil's army. The rebellion failed and the rifles were taken over by the Policia Militaria (IIRC). Hard used is putting it mildly. The stock was unsalvagable and the barrel was a sewer pipe.
So, a Boyd's stock, a 19" 7x57 barrel from Sarco, parkerization and iron sights from a local smith and this is where I sit. I have tung oil on order to finish the wood and my next paycheck has a leather sling and a stock sock for ammo budgeted in.
As she is for now.
Beautiful job with the refinishing. You might not think of Parkerization as pretty but I do.
Ghost ring rear sight, classic ramp up front. Pretty sure he bought Williams.
I am hoping to get to the range tomorrow and test the new sights. The wood finish will hopefully arrive next week.
Progress on a long time project
