Savage 24 - Series P

[AJ]

Welcome to the forums.

I don't see a model 24 series P. There are many versions of the model 24 but not a P. Does it have the .22 lr or the .22 Mag rifle barrel? Is it a 410 bore or a 20 gauge? Does it have a top lever or does it open with a side lever? It is either a Model 24, a 24B-DL, 24S, 24 MS, 24 DL, or 24MDL. Those were the versions made in the 1960's. Centerfire rifle barreled model 24 guns were introduced in 1971.

My Savage P24 has the 22LR on the top and a top lever for the break. It was my grandfather's gun so I don't know when it was purchased, but the late 60's early 70's would be my best guess. It's a 20ga. shotgun on the bottom.

Hope this helps.
