Who used it?

Greetings

It was the standard rifle used by the Romanian army in WWII. See here: http://www.worldwar2.ro/arme/?article=278

Thanks Dani! I was looking for an image of the king Carol II crest on a vz24 and there's one on the link!

This was very convenient for the Germans, who captured all the Czech and Yugoslav examples, because the vz24 was almost identical to their own standard rifle and fired the same round. Cheers, Sid.
