Can someone help me in identifying this Mauser-style rifle I have? I have tried looking up markings, but can't seem to find one that matches. The serials do not match.
I will be dumping pictures of it, and I think I've got anything covered, but let me know if you want a different look on something. Thanks.

Isn't this a VZ 24 "1938" intended for china or Japan but never delivered?
>>
>>33343162
I truly have no idea
>>33343097 kind of looks like a waffenamt yo me. I've just never been able to find that odd cross marking all over the gun. Especially visible on the left side of receiver
>>
>>33343063
It's a Spanish M43 Mauser.
>>33343162
No.
>>
This looks to be a VZ24 that was captured by the Germans and pressed into service to me. Is the bolt handle turned down, or straight?
>>
>>33343226
Turned down
>>
>>33343210
See that s the thing. It has no receiver roll stamp. Also, I can't seem to find that weird cross with one pointy end mark anywhere as a Spanish mark, as m43 was my first thought
>>
where is the serial number on the bolt? On the handle, or the flat on top?
>>
>>33343378
On the handle
>>
Are there proofs on the right side of the receiver? A pic would help.
The WaA280 on the front band is German WWII. This rifle may be a project someone put together.

>>33343448
No markings at all on right side
