    Looking for someone who is more knowledgeable than me on the Mauser FN model 24 or 30. Mostly how you can tell the difference between the 2 guns. I understand they were both made around the same time. This particular gun has the marking of the Yugoslav mod 1924b. You can see where the original markings were "scrubbed". I don't know any history on this gun or even it's approximate value, any help would be appreciated. I can send pictures if interested.

    I would assume caliber, but that may not be completely right. I have a Venezuelan 30 and it is a 7mm Mauser. Really beautiful little gun.

    The best way is to measure the receiver. Measure the tang to the front of the receiver. If its a Fn model 1924 the receiver should be 8 1/2" long.. FN model 1930 the receiver is 8 3/4" long. My bet is that that is a Model 1930..
