According to Colonel Dr. Miroslav Šada and his book Czechoslovak Small Arms and Machine Guns, there are various reconstructions of the heavy machine guns of the Schwarzlose system.
The first variant was the reconstruction of the Austro-Hungarian light and heavy machine guns vz.7/12 into the 7.9 mm machine gun vz.7/24
The second variant was the reconstruction of the Austro-Hungarian vz.16 machine guns into the 7.9 mm vz.7/24 machine gun
The third design was Janeček's production of modernized machine guns introduced under the designation: 7.9 mm machine gun vz.24
Footnote I consider the mentioned "light machine gun vz.26" and here classified as a weapon of the Schwarzloz system to be a fluke or a typo, because the army of the first Slovak Republic introduced weapons acquired from the defunct Czechoslovak Army. Army with the original slightly Slovakized name!
I have a feeling that the term light machine gun in the weapons of the Schwarzloz system applied to machine guns equipped with a bipod - thus lightened from the heavy three-arm base.

2Lishak: What do you mean with the belt shifting?? There's no mechanism in the feeder to move it...
2Jiří Tintěra:The 7/12 was used in a "light" version, the original base was replaced by a subtle folding tripod and shorter cartridge belts were used in smaller(lower) cartridge boxes. They were also in the armament of the Czechoslovak pre-Mnich army. But it was a modification of somewhat dubious value.
One more thing about the above photos. They all show the original pattern 7/12. The TK.vz.24 differs in appearance mainly by the extended radiator (by 105mm.), the visor (sliding-sled) and the muffler limiting the blast during firing (the vz.24 used a visibly shorter muffler).

In the SM 12/2004 is literally stated: "an Essential difference in the activity of both weapons (7/12 and W 24) was a move that he performed while shooting cartridge belt. The machine gun vz. 7/12 performed belt only longitudinal movement derived from the pickup coil. When shooting from machine gun W 24 belt did not only longitudinal movement but also lateral movement back and forth on the track 4 mm. This movement was derived from the extractors, which than began to pull the charge from the belt, kidnap to 4 mm backward." Merely quotes of the above-mentioned periodicals..

Some photos of the status of Tk.vz.24 . This is the trench for firing in the kneeling position,one of the two possible variants ( this is the "L",the second is the "U"),the depth of the trench is 70cm,the floor plan is approx. 200 x 200 cm. In the trench was a direct operation (commander of the swarm,shooter and assistant).
