Note that the 24/47, like the M48, is based on the FN 1924 medium length action. That is not significant except that many action parts won't interchange with the "standard" Mauser 98's like the K.98k and VZ-24.
It also means the some accessories, like one piece scope bases for the standard 98, will not fit the 24/47, and that conversion to a longer cartridge (e.g., .30-'06) is not feasible.
