Description:
This is an early model 24 in 22 LR over 410 Shotgun so it does not have a serial number. It has a very good stock and forearm and a side-mounted barrel release. It is in fair condition showing bluing loss on the barrel but no pitting or rust. The Savage model 24's are very simple to break down into two pieces so this would make a great, in the pack hiking gun, or an easy to conceal from prying eyes, truck gun.
MORE INFORMATION
The Savage Model 24 is an American made over-and-under combination gun manufactured by Savage Arms. The basic .22LR over .410 gauge model weighs 7 pounds, has 24-inch barrels, and an overall length of 41-inches. It may also be disassembled for ease of stowage.
History
The Savage Model 24 was actually introduced by Stevens Arms as the Model 22-410 in 1938. During World War II the United States Army Air Corps purchased some 15,000 Model 22-410s for use as survival guns.
In 1950, Stevens stopped making the 22-410, and Savage introduced the same gun as the Model 24. The basic .22LR over .410 gauge model weighs 7 pounds, has 24-inch barrels, and an overall length of 41-inches. It may also be disassembled for ease of storage. Over its many years of production, it was made in a number of versions, including a pistol grip model that is only 26 inches long. The upper rifle barrels were chambered not only in .22 LR, but also 22 WMR, .22 Hornet, .222 Rem, .223 Rem, .30-30 Win, .357 Magnum, and .357 Max. And, the lower shotgun barrels were chambered for .410 gauge, 20-gauge, and 12-gauge] They came with both wood and plastic stocks that may or may not hold extra ammunition in the butt. As well as, a variety of finishes and grades. The Model 24 was discontinued in 2010.
Design
The Stevens and early Savage models have one trigger and an exposed hammer, with a barrel selector on the right side of the receiver (up for the rifle barrel and down for the shotgun barrel) and no manual safety. Later models had the selector on the top of the exposed hammer (forward/down for shotgun barrel and back/up for the rifle barrel) with a cross-bolt hammer-block safety through the receiver.
