With the increase in the prominence of the Czech arms industry the VZ23 bayonet was made for export with it's Mauser rifle. These blades can be found with both Austrian and Czech markings. Czechoslovak manufactured version of the Austrianfor use on the Mannlicher originally used by the Czech military. Many thanks to Brian Conkle for the information he provided me based on his knowledge and collection of the VZ bayonets. The information below has been gleaned from books and discussions held by the BCN, any mistake, correction or additional information will be gratefully received. Does the D on the stock look like it is aligned well? And the bolt, if matching?On this page I have outlined the various VZ24 and VZ33 pattern bayonets available to the collector and have used my own collection and photographs from other collectors to illustrate the variations.
I'm leaning toward later but the alignment is very good. It's hard to tell if that D was stamped at the same time as the numbers or later. Looks like ZB must have had more lion crest receivers than they needed for the Czechoslovak Army, so they threw some into the export rifles. Mystery Mauser - Haitian? Czechoslovakian? Or Not? I have always wondered about the date for this rifle.Īccording to your post it would be correct? Sponsored Links Remove Advertisements.
