Rjay,

I believe you are correct, though it is a bit sketchy still in my mind, that the Czech's didn't receive any M95's as reparations. But it is my understanding that they did have around 300,000 Austrian rifles, mostly M95's, in country when it was created. They did purchase the equipment to manufacture the VZ-23 VZ-24's after the war but until that operation was up and running they did have a program to repair what was in country.
