Remington Model 24 Rifle In 1912 John Browning finished designing his third.22 calibre firearm. Following the slide-action Model 1890 and the bolt action Model 1900 for Winchester Browning finished a semi-automatic design, filing a patent for the design in March 1913, which was granted in January 1914. The production rights were immediately taken up by Browning’s European partner company FN. Blast from the Past: Remington Model 24. A reader shares the story of a gun that’s been in his family for nearly a century. By Phil Bourjaily. December 28, 2018. More The Gun Nuts. ON = July 1922 which is the first year of the 24 correct? What I would like to know is the production number of my little model 24. Below is pics with which I believe is the serial numbers. Can anyone tell me what number this 24 was out of the plant? I noticed there are two sets of numbers were the barrel attaches does anyone know what they mean?

Based on a John Browning design and manufactured from 1922–1935, the Remington model 24 is a semi-automatic rifle chambered in either.22 Short or.22 long rifle.It is very closely related to the Browning 22 Semi-Auto rifle (the Browning SA-22) which is still in production. It is a Takedown gun, meaning that the barrel and receiver are easily separated without tools, allowing for a smaller. The following serial number information is for Remingtion firearms manufactured after 1921. Remingtons manufactured after 1921 have a code located on the left side of the barrel.

THE HISTORY OF WINCHESTER HISTORIC SERIAL NUMBER RECORDS.
There are many “legends” about why the historic serial number records for Winchester rifles and shotguns are not complete or why they are not always verifiable. A few reasons cited are:

1. A fire at the factory
2. Inadvertent destruction (during office cleaning)
3. Records simply lost in filing
4. Records misplaced between ownership transitions
5. Documents borrowed but not returned

There is probably some kernel of truth to all of them. But the fact remains; there is no original, single, totally accurate database of serial numbers from 1866 forward that we are aware of. But perhaps these pages can help you somewhat in your research.

Please keep the following points in mind as you explore these pages:

• Many of the Winchester brand firearms produced over the years are included, but not all. If your firearm is not listed, we probably do not have any additional information.
• Before the 1990s the Winchester Repeating Arms firearms brand transferred ownership several times. Any information before the 1990s is always difficult to verify.
• In general, only serial number ranges with an approximate year are provided in this document. There is no other detail beyond this that we can provide.
• Since this information was provided through old documents (both official and otherwise), no representation is made that all serial number and year combinations are totally accurate.
• In some exceptional cases, a more detailed, accurate determination can be made by calling the Winchester Repeating Arms Historian at the Morgan, Utah office. 800-333-3288. Ask for the Winchester Repeating Arms Historian.

• For questions related to Ammunition don’t call us. Contact Winchester Ammunition directly.
• No attempt has been made to determine the value of any guns listed.
• The Cody Firearms Museum has more information on Winchesters produced before 1900.
• This late historian George Madis compiled extensive histories on Winchester firearms. www.georgemadis.com

Remington Model 24 Value

Based on a John Browning design and manufactured from 1922–1935, the Remington model 24 is a semi-automatic rifle chambered in either .22 Short or .22 long rifle. It is very closely related to the Browning 22 Semi-Auto rifle (the Browning SA-22) which is still in production. It is a Takedown gun, meaning that the barrel and receiver are easily separated without tools, allowing for a smaller package for transport. A case deflector (seen in the image here) that hooked into the receiver and clipped onto the trigger guard was available.

Remington Model 24 Serial Number Lookup

In this photo of John Browning [1] a close look will reveal that he appears to be holding a Remington Model 24 semi-automatic .22 rifle.

When comparing the Model 24 to the Browning SA-22 it will be seen that the Model 24 is of a more delicate (lighter build) design. When Remington ceased production of the Model 24 in 1935 it was replaced by the Remington 241. The Model 241 is closer to the Browning SA-22 in terms of size and overall appearance than the earlier Model 24.

The Model 24 uses a barrel tightening method (needed due to the takedown nature of the design in which the barrel can be separated from the receiver) that is very close to that of the Browning SA-22. That tightening method uses an adjusting ring on the lower end of the barrel where it presses up against the receiver. The Model 241 uses a different method of tightening the barrel to the receiver (a dual-sided nut with an interrupted-screw threading rides inside the opening in the front of the receiver and, by selecting how deeply the nut sits in the receiver, it controls how tightly the barrel fits against the receiver when the barrel is fitted to the receiver. This mechanism of the Model 241 is not visible unless the barrel is separated from the receiver so that the opening in the front of the receiver can be viewed).
