Zastava M24/47 Mauser Rifle – 7.92x57mm (8mm Mauser), Yugoslavian Military Surplus

The Zastava M24/47 is a post–World War II Yugoslavian refurbishment of pre-war Mauser Model 24 rifles, reworked at the Zavod 44 (Factory 44) arsenal. Chambered in the powerful 7.92x57mm (8mm Mauser), this bolt-action rifle is a robust and historically significant military surplus firearm.

This example retains its original hardwood stock with visible field wear and character markings, consistent with decades of service. The receiver is stamped M24/47 along with the Yugoslav crest, a hallmark of these rifles. While the metal finish shows patina from age and use, these rifles are known for their rugged reliability and accuracy when properly maintained.

Whether you’re a collector of surplus Mausers or simply seeking a budget-friendly shooter in a classic military caliber, the Zastava M24/47 offers a solid and affordable piece of Cold War–era history.
