I have a Savage 24 223/20 with a black plastic stock, I have had the gun for 40 years I am 76 years old now I have never shot it at a varmint lol 😂 I give $450.00 at a auction. The older guy bought it for coyote hunting, the 223 for long range the 20GA for closer shots. My stock bolt for the but plate busted out ,& the stock is hollow so you can use it for extra bullets or whatever, so I have mine torn pup right now, I have 2 -24c. Stands for camper. Special, I love all 3, the campers are 22/20GA . Be safe hootie-hoo.
Saw recently a video about the SAVAGE manufacturing plant. Everything is possible with their custom department with a good turnaround time for many things, INCLUDING stocks of out of production models in stock. Just call the Lady managing the custom shop orders.
Was a Anti-gunner handling your once nice Savage 😢. Growing up I had 3 guns. Ruger Nylon 22,243,Savage 24 22 over 20 gauge. Lord I want my old pewpews!
Friend, I would have that inspected by a qualified gun smith because that rifle was torqued vertically from the top-down with enough force to blow those chips Off the front of that stock which means that there's a possibility that those barrels are slightly bent. It looks like you're trigger guard is bent slightly. It is incredibly unfortunate that that has happened to you. But really you should have it inspected..
First, the shipper and shipping company are responsible for the damage, File a claim. Second do Not use epoxy, get some Tite- Bond wood glue lightly coat both surfaces and get the pieces back in place. From the looks it was dropped on the butt-stock and cracked those parts off. High probability the gun itself was damaged so I would at least make an attempt to get your money back or paid to have it professionally repaired. I’ve fixed ones in worse shape. FYI replacement stocks are available, just search SAvage 24 stock, the came in a flat backed receiver like yours and one with scallops on the side. A call to Savage may reveal the more common scalloped may be able to be fit to your gun
My uncle had one of those. Someone broke in his house recently and stole it. Where we have land, we never had to worry about locking our doors because we were so far away from any city. Now we have to have gun safes.
On my mothers birthday, 01/03/1970, my Uncle Richard took me to Will’s Pawn Shop in downtown Cincinnati. With money saved from mowing grass I bought a Savage model 24 S-D. 22LR on top, .410 on the bottom. Mine is the one piece barrel. My first gun! I wouldn’t think about ever selling this gun. It will get passed on to my son when my time is up!
Wow. That’s a great story. You should write it down and put a paper copy of it with the gun. My dad recently passed and the little notes he left with things meant more than the items themselves. Go ahead and do it. We don’t know how much time we have. Wishing you a long and happy life with your family.
Back in the 1970s, my friend had one of those in .222 and 20 gauge. Sweet little combination. Good luck with your new acquisition. I'm sure it will look fine, once you repair the stock.
These model 24 over/under stocks are commonly damaged in the same places yours is broken. I'd just give Boyd's a call for new aftermarket wood stock. Just make certain dimensions are the right fit. For example: Boyd's replacement stock will be dimensionally crafted using whatever vintage model 24 they have for duplication process.
I came here to say the exact same thing , i would say 3 out of 10 i ever came across was either missing a chip on one side or both sides like this one , i would presume it was already weakened and the shipping trip didn't help it. Shit happens when you party naked and shit happens when you ship guns its gona happen
Hey wtw, you found a good one. I have the same rifle in 222 20 gauge. Got a big gobbler with it opening day here in ga. I also have the 22 410 and the 22 mag 20 gauge. Really like these rifles. You actually found a rare one. Most 223s are 24f. That stock is really hard to find. They are notorious for breaking rite where yours broke. All except the v and f models had scalloped notch where it meets the action. Those stocks are easy to find, and you can modify them to fit. Cant wait to see the range video on this one. Ive messed with these guns quite a bit. Anything i can help with, give me a shout.
I'm 58 and they were aleays difficult to obtain by the mid 80's. The one i really wanted back then that was the 30-30/12ga but it was virtually unobtainium by then.
My Grandpa had one, but it was a 22lr over 410 I remember taking it squirrel hunting when I was about 15 years old and I broke the barrel selector switch off, had to take it to a gunsmith. I can't remember if the selector was on the receiver or the tang when I broke it, but I do remember how he fixed it because it looked just like the selector on your's which was on the hammer. I also have a feeling the stock may have already been broke before they shipped it because I have seen several single shot shotguns with wood being broke the same way I even have a BAR in 7 mag that's got a crack in the same area.
Savage 24's were a very sweet setup. Came in a standard version (which you have), and a deluxe version that had the barrel selection as a sliding button on the side of the frame. A number of combinations were available. Most common, 22LR and 22 mag over 410 and 20 guage. 222/410, 222/20, 223/20, 223/12, 30-30/20, 30-30/12 were all common combinations. I've seen a 30-30/410, but I think that was one of the rarest. Originally, the barrels were bored from a single steel blank, but later models were two barrels joined. That joining also changed over time from a typical "shotgun" solder technique to a coupling sleeve. The most accurate are the two separate barrels joined by a coupler, but the originals were pretty accurate "as is." After production ceased, Savage did come out with a "modernized" version that's still available (somewhere), but I don't like the looks or feel of that one. Agree with a couple of other commenters that you need to have everything checked by a gunsmith. Shipping trauma that was severe enough to cause that kind of stock damage could potentially cause barrel damage as well.
Cool find! Thanks for sharing. Hope you can get it restored properly..but you know the saying. “ A man will pay twice the price for something he needs, but a woman will pay 1/2 price for something she doesn’t!”
If I recall correctly, and its very possible I don't, the 24's are based on the 94 single shot platform. I believe you can make a 94 stock fit without too much work. I'd imagine Numrich Gun Parts would be the place to watch for a replacement stock set. I've always had good luck with Savage parts there.
I'd be taking pictures of the damage and reaming the shipping company for the repair costs. Even if it meant having custom wood made for it. That would really look good with Tiger maple furniture, or some old growth cherry.
People want to automatically blame the shipping company, and while they are partially to blame the company or seller that didn’t care enough to package it properly holds the majority of it.
@@redrider7730I also question whether it hadn't been repaired once before. Then in shipping those repairs that weren't noticed in the shop came apart. Hard to say really.
@@redrider7730I mean… it was inside a padded case and I’m sure a card board box. They need to handle their packages with more care. The damage looks like it’s from slamming the stock on something. It looks like someone used it as a sledge hammer. 100% shipping company fault in my opinion.
@@TheBeefSlayer If you think the 1/4" padding in a cheap rifle case and a carboard box is enough to ship an old rifle, you may want to rethink what you think you know. That's what bubble wrap, packing peanuts and other shipping products were created for.
Thanks for sharing, WTW. When I was growing up during the 1950s over-under guns were fairly common and like yours, they typically had the rifle barrel on top and the shotgun barrel below.
Hi Adam, the 24v had many different combo's. I owned 2, 1 in 22/410 and 222/20gauge. Once you figured the select barrel you should find that they shoot very good. I should never have sold either of them. Have fun and enjoy your New/Used Bing Bang..
Glad you pronounced Olathe correctly . So many don’t . I’m on the Missouri side but it’s all the part of the Kansas City Metro where you have to look for the signs to even know you went from Kansas City Mo. to Kansas City Ks . Or all the other smaller cities included in the metro .
I’ve got a 30-30 over 12ga.. got it for walking thickets in grown over clear cuts and just never did. If memory serves me correctly it’s never been shot.
I have a Savage model 24. It's a .22/410 over under combo. The barrel selector is on the side of the frame and moves up/down as you might expect. This was my first gun and will never leave my collection. Dad gave it to me when I turned 13, and it was older than I was at that time. Great small game gun.
They are guns from a different age. Really nice in 223 over 20. Believe it or not I found a 357 max over 20. Had to have it. First I ever saw. Since I got mine I have seen only one other with 357 maximum barrel. They are wonderful guns. I always wanted a 24C. A camper’s model. It came in a small case. I also have a 22 LR over 20. Beautiful made in 50s and 60s. Very sorry to see your’s broken stock. A good smith with epoxy can make it look new. A big fan in Fl.
My 1st cousin had one that he used when we hunted together.( mid 1960’s.) his was a .22 over 20 gauge. The rifle barrel was designed to shoot all .22’s except for the magnum cartridge. John took many squirrels with that combo.
I have two, my dads and grandfathers. Both are 22lr/410. They have a little button on the side of the receiver that selects the barrel you want to fire vs the selector on the hammer.
Awesome guns I grew up with one in 22lr over 410 the first production model that had the selector on the side that was prone to problems but mine was chipped similar got a replacement stock from Numrich gun parts but stocks are out there the Stevens 94 stock I believe is the same and they can be found in higher grade wood also...can't wait for videos on this one wish I could own 1 of every caliber/combination.
You can achieve the same versatility with any 20 or 12 gauge O/U and a barrel insert. Savage used to make the "Four-Tenner," which was a .410 insert for a 12 gauge barrel, and it supported .45 Colt. Other inserts for 12 Gauge provide inserts with chambers for .45 ACP, .40 S&W, and many other handgun and rifle rounds. There are insert kits that come with multiple caliber inserts, each of which is about 6 inches or so long - even .22, slightly offset so that the hammer impacts the rimfire's rim. Sort of a SHTF device that gives you firepower support no matter what you can find after the zombie apocalypse.
Nice gun. Sorry that they didnt pack it any better & that the shipping apes damaged it so. I do believe that it can be fixed. I cannot imagine what kind of impact could cause that while it was packaged! 😟
Thanks guy. I feel your pain. Not with guns, which I now collect, but BEEN THERE! a thing I so so wanted showed up and in my budget and I bought sight unseen. And when it showed up it was... in unrestoreable pieces. Ah well......
I would call the gun shop and have them file an insurance claim. I'm sure they insured the firearm. You also mentioned a hard case that you could have used to bring the gun home. The case in the video is a softcase and you wouldn't be able to fly with that. i have one these in 22WMR/20Gauge. i can't hunt turkey with it because we can only use shotguns in Maryland but it is fun and accurate within 30 yards. best of luck and keep the great videos coming.
Yeah I remember when those guns was still in production, a lot of hunters liked them but I didn’t. It is a cool gun, and one you should keep if it checks out as good by a gunsmith. You can have a new stock made for it, as there are a lot of guys that make black powder rifles that can copy the original stock. Any gunsmith should be able to carve you a custom stock, from any exotic wood you want so a busted stock is not a great loss.
YES! I'd have happily paid a premium for that. That's the nicest example of the model I've seen. & I have seen a few. Damn shame it took a beating on its way home. Nice find!
I have a few of these. And stocks are available from a few locations. I just posted a video on my 24v 222/20 and more to come. Internet searchers will result in wood for you. I had to do same on my 357 Maxi/20ga. Was badly splintered wood EXACT same as yours.
I knew a few guys that had the .22/410 combo. Never saw a centerfire though. I think they hit a sales slump back when most states banned turkey hunting with rifles and they eventually quit making them.
There were about eight of those on the used gun rack at Cabelas in Hamburg Pa last year in different variations and calibers. They were all in good shape and around $900 each. I have the 22/410 version but would love a 22 Mag over 20 gauge.
Sorry to hear your stock got busted up. I think you still can get replacements for these. I have these rifles in the 30 30,20 gauge and 357 magnum, 20 gauge 22, hornet 20 gauge 22 mag 20 gauge and three of the 222 20 gauge. Something I learned the hard way is these are hunting rifles, and only like to be shot once because of the harmonics vibrations of the barrels. You will have to site these in with one shot then let the ruffle rest for five minutes or more. All of them are very accurate, but are only at one shot gun as this is a hunting rifle shotgun. Always wanted to make a CZcams video on it so if you want to make one, that would be awesome for the rest of the people as your videos are awesome thank you.
I have a model 24c in 20 ga/ 22lr. Used it in the 70s . Great survival gun, with the easy breakdown and short barrels it fit nice,ly under the back seat of my Super Cub floatplane. Still have the gun, but sadly not the Super cub!
There's a savage 24 stock on eBay for $99 and a little extra on shipping. I used to see them at flea markets often. They weren't too rare around here, but haven't seen too many in the last couple of years
These are Combo guns originally designed as a woodsman survival gun. Shotgun for birds. Rifle for ground-game. I have a Baikal IZH-94, imported from Russia. It is a 12GA/.223. Beautiful wood, pretty brass triggers and shoots great. These types of guns are pretty awesome. Sucks about your broken stock.
Good looking Over under shotgun . You never know how something is going look like when shipping it. Hopefully you can get looking great again. Thanks for sharing. 👍🇺🇸
Awesome bingbang! I know the anger about having something damaged in shipping 😊. I ordered a 10/22 Ruger eagle etched that came scratched up, and the box screwed up. There's nothing like yours, but I'm sure the pain is the same. Brother, i am very sorry. Thank you for sharing. Awesome bingbang! A good wood worker might be the best choice if you are going to keep it.
Awesome I know a couple old timers that still have them I did some firing pin work on one of them that’s in .222/ 20 gauge they are sweet old rifles 👍🏼
i remember those from back in the early 80s the most common chamberings was 3030 223/222/ 22 mag/ 22lr and 20g and 12g for the shotgun . i had all ways wanted to but the 223/20 combo as they were very popular among the survivalist back in the day/ seens like there was a little thing-am-my whacky that allowed you to fire 22 mag out of the top barrel on the 223
Ive got a Savage 24 that is 223 over 12 gauge. Has screw in chokes. Never been fired, still has the tags on it. I bought it from an estate a few years ago.
That's so frustrating how they packed it so poorly. I hope you can get the stock repaired. I have a few of these, or something like these by Savage over the last few years. They were outside my price range, as much as I wanted them. One was the 30.30/ 12 gauge combo, actually.
A number of years ago I had a double barrel over and under that came in various configurations . The make was a Valmet and the model was a 412. I believe that there was some connection between Savage & Valmet on these guns. Enjoy it.
A friend of mine had a Savage over and under back in the 60’s . We hunted and plinked a lot together gather on my family’s farm back then. I think that I remember it better by a 22 LR on today and a 3 inch 410 on the bottom. It was a fun gun although I never thought they were as good as a dedicated rifle or shotgun. I think they’re a good survival weapon, though.
My Savage 24 bought on GB got damaged in shipment in the same place and two pieces broke off real clean. The seller did an insurance claim and gave me all my money back but gun smith told me to glue them back in place and hold with some rubber tubing and it came out all right. Mine is 22 mag and 20 gauge. I have a Russian gun, Baikal of the same design in 30-06 and 12 gauge and it has the rifle on the bottom and shotgun on top.
Evening WTW. I have wanted a Model 24 since I 1st shot one in 1972 at age 16. Three years ago I aquired a pristine Model 24 D(deluxe) case hardened receiver in 22 mag over 20 gage. One of my favorites. Congrats on your find and am so sorry to hear about the shipping mishap. Can you get compensation from shipping company?
Back in the 60's, my Cousin had two of these rifles. One was a 30-30/12 Gauge and the other was a .22/410 Gauge. I was always very impressed with these rifles and wanted one but they were rare and expensive.
Back in the early 70s my uncle had a 222 20 gauge over under that when you fired the20 it would break open and he had to have it repaired. A great gun .
I like my lever and bolts and so ons but the brake open love senders will stay . They do not mess up often. Mean more foods in the freezer. Nice even with the damage.
You just went to one of my favorite gun buying spots Mission Pawn is another place of mine it's like 20 minutes away from there...LoL Kansas is where is at....
Hey WTW! I was lucky enough to get a Savage 24d Series P in 22mag over 20 ga from am old timer who was downsizing as he headed towards retirement. Mine is in pristine condition and have shot the 22mag barrel a few times. Recently, I have seen them going for around $800-900. I got mine for $525 a few years ago. Nice gun. Sorry yours got banged up in shipping.
I’ve watched your channel for a while now and thought it was pretty cool that you picked up a rifle at a shop in my hometown that I frequently visit. Sorry to hear that it wasn’t packaged very well and ended up damaged in shipping.
I go in Olathe Gun shop off and on. I'm on the Missouri side so have to go through the hassle of having it shipped across state lines but it's a good place to go.
How do you get that secondary chip. Off the main . The 2nd dary chips don't look like it was load bearing. I'd wonder if some inspector smacked it for an inspection in the broke off in Three.
These were fairly common in the 70s growing up in VA. Several of my friends and family members used them during deer drives. Shotgun w/buckshot for up close, centerfire for longer quick shot. As I recall the centerfires were not terribly accurate and my Uncle moved on to a Valmet of the same style which were higher quality. Sorry to hear about the damage.
Hey, Who_Tee_Hoo, I learnt to shoot with one of these. My Father has 2 of them, the one I used alot when I was young, was a .22lr over a .410 shotgun. Later he found a .22 over 20 guage to add to his collection. I have really fond memories as a teenager stalking around bushes to bust bunnies.
They used to be everywhere. Most of them I saw were 22lr over 20 or 410 gauges. I always wanted one but couldn't afford one. I was raising 4 kids. Oh! Check with the dealer you nought it from. HE surly insured it.
LGS had a 22/ 20g. Thought it was over priced. Than I saw one on MarksmanTV, back when they could tell the prices. Bought that one for $150 less. Still playing with it. Also got a 357 mag insert for it. Love it, 3 guns in one.
Keep break clean , may be better to glue and clamp each side one at a time still attached to gun then remove stock and refinish it . I have a Winchester mod 42 the very same chips got broke . I glued both chips at once with Elmers white glue all , wrapped two strands off high grade electrical tape round and round stretching tape then put 2 worm gear steel clamps around tape and tightened. The tape keeps wood from marring. Then removed and refinished stock . Lot of trouble but still a 2 grand shotgun . Elmers is vey strong if clamped on clean break and gives you plenty of time to clamp .that’s really a pisser that they are so rough in shipping
Nice find! The wood can be repaired easily and you wouldn’t even see it. It’s a good gun, and not so common anymore in the US . Those are Grade A meat makers!

Adam went full send on the manscape ad! 👍
Hi Adam, the 24v had many different combo's. I owned 2, 1 in 22/410 and 222/20gauge.
Once you figured the select barrel you should find that they shoot very good. I should never have sold either of them. Have fun and enjoy your New/Used Bing Bang..
Glad you pronounced Olathe correctly . So many don’t . I’m on the Missouri side but it’s all the part of the Kansas City Metro where you have to look for the signs to even know you went from Kansas City Mo. to Kansas City Ks . Or all the other smaller cities included in the metro .
Great show Kenny!! You nailed it!!
I’ve got a 30-30 over 12ga.. got it for walking thickets in grown over clear cuts and just never did. If memory serves me correctly it’s never been shot.
I have a Savage model 24. It's a .22/410 over under combo. The barrel selector is on the side of the frame and moves up/down as you might expect. This was my first gun and will never leave my collection. Dad gave it to me when I turned 13, and it was older than I was at that time. Great small game gun.
I saw those a lot as a teenager and have always wanted one. Yous is exactly the configuration that I want. Very cool! Awaiting a range report.
Beautiful rifle Who T. My brother did some similar damage to a shotgun . I had a guy I know who's good with wood fix it. He did an awesome repair job.
Cool gun. I've wanted one for about 50yrs, ever since seeing one in Shooting Times magazine as a kid.
Anybody remember Skeeter Skelton?
My pap had the 222/20 gauge now it has been passed on to me. Makes a good fall turkey rifle!
That is so unfortunate. My dad has a 22WM/.410. Excellent rabbit gun. Cool find. I am sure you can fix her right up.
They are guns from a different age. Really nice in 223 over 20. Believe it or not I found a 357 max over 20. Had to have it. First I ever saw. Since I got mine I have seen only one other with 357 maximum barrel. They are wonderful guns. I always wanted a 24C. A camper’s model. It came in a small case. I also have a 22 LR over 20. Beautiful made in 50s and 60s. Very sorry to see your’s broken stock. A good smith with epoxy can make it look new. A big fan in Fl.
Back in the '50's , a friend had a 24, chambered in .22LR and .410 as I recall...nice...
My 1st cousin had one that he used when we hunted together.( mid 1960’s.) his was a .22 over 20 gauge. The rifle barrel was designed to shoot all .22’s except for the magnum cartridge. John took many squirrels with that combo.
I have two, my dads and grandfathers. Both are 22lr/410. They have a little button on the side of the receiver that selects the barrel you want to fire vs the selector on the hammer.
Awesome guns I grew up with one in 22lr over 410 the first production model that had the selector on the side that was prone to problems but mine was chipped similar got a replacement stock from Numrich gun parts but stocks are out there the Stevens 94 stock I believe is the same and they can be found in higher grade wood also...can't wait for videos on this one wish I could own 1 of every caliber/combination.
LOL!!! That was a dedicated manscape plug. Ol Boy buzzed his whole head.
Very nice! Unfortunate about the damage. I've had two of those, a 22 lr over a 20ga. and a 22wrm over a 20 ga. Still have the 22 mag.
you will have a ton of fun with this savage I new about them a long time ago but I have never owned one. Looking forward to the range review
I had the 22 mag/410 model. Unfortunately, it was lost in a fire. I miss middle Tennessee. Keep up the good work.
You can achieve the same versatility with any 20 or 12 gauge O/U and a barrel insert. Savage used to make the "Four-Tenner," which was a .410 insert for a 12 gauge barrel, and it supported .45 Colt. Other inserts for 12 Gauge provide inserts with chambers for .45 ACP, .40 S&W, and many other handgun and rifle rounds. There are insert kits that come with multiple caliber inserts, each of which is about 6 inches or so long - even .22, slightly offset so that the hammer impacts the rimfire's rim. Sort of a SHTF device that gives you firepower support no matter what you can find after the zombie apocalypse.
Nice gun. Sorry that they didnt pack it any better & that the shipping apes damaged it so. I do believe that it can be fixed. I cannot imagine what kind of impact could cause that while it was packaged! 😟
UPS & FedEx have been known to intentionally damage long gunboxes.
Good question!
A good find , good luck with it.
I had a .222 over 20 gauge. Yep I had a Savage 24F. They also made a .308 over 12.
Thanks guy. I feel your pain. Not with guns, which I now collect, but BEEN THERE! a thing I so so wanted showed up and in my budget and I bought sight unseen. And when it showed up it was... in unrestoreable pieces. Ah well......
Sorry about your stock being damaged. It's sickening to see such damage that cannot be replaced. Good luck with the repairs.
You must have an economy auto parts store you go to with the reman econo power battery on your seat 😂
I have the 24C, 22LR over 20 Guage camper model that stores 1 shotshell and 10 22 rounds in the buttstock. Love that gun!
I would call the gun shop and have them file an insurance claim. I'm sure they insured the firearm. You also mentioned a hard case that you could have used to bring the gun home. The case in the video is a softcase and you wouldn't be able to fly with that.
i have one these in 22WMR/20Gauge. i can't hunt turkey with it because we can only use shotguns in Maryland but it is fun and accurate within 30 yards.
best of luck and keep the great videos coming.
Yeah I remember when those guns was still in production, a lot of hunters liked them but I didn’t. It is a cool gun, and one you should keep if it checks out as good by a gunsmith. You can have a new stock made for it, as there are a lot of guys that make black powder rifles that can copy the original stock. Any gunsmith should be able to carve you a custom stock, from any exotic wood you want so a busted stock is not a great loss.
YES! I'd have happily paid a premium for that. That's the nicest example of the model I've seen. & I have seen a few. Damn shame it took a beating on its way home. Nice find!
Back in the earlier 70’s my cousin bought the 222/20 gauge for Turkey hunting . Sweet little gun .
I have a few of these. And stocks are available from a few locations.
I just posted a video on my 24v 222/20 and more to come.
Internet searchers will result in wood for you.
I had to do same on my 357 Maxi/20ga. Was badly splintered wood EXACT same as yours.
Hey CW Longshot, I was just thinking of your video that I watched the ohter day as I watched this one!
@@floridagunrat1625 Thanks Brother!
Hope he is able to get this repaired. Its a Get fun gun!!
I knew a few guys that had the .22/410 combo. Never saw a centerfire though. I think they hit a sales slump back when most states banned turkey hunting with rifles and they eventually quit making them.
There were about eight of those on the used gun rack at Cabelas in Hamburg Pa last year in different variations and calibers. They were all in good shape and around $900 each. I have the 22/410 version but would love a 22 Mag over 20 gauge.
Sorry to hear your stock got busted up. I think you still can get replacements for these. I have these rifles in the 30 30,20 gauge and 357 magnum, 20 gauge 22, hornet 20 gauge 22 mag 20 gauge and three of the 222 20 gauge. Something I learned the hard way is these are hunting rifles, and only like to be shot once because of the harmonics vibrations of the barrels. You will have to site these in with one shot then let the ruffle rest for five minutes or more. All of them are very accurate, but are only at one shot gun as this is a hunting rifle shotgun. Always wanted to make a CZcams video on it so if you want to make one, that would be awesome for the rest of the people as your videos are awesome thank you.
I have a model 24c in 20 ga/ 22lr. Used it in the 70s . Great survival gun, with the easy breakdown and short barrels it fit nice,ly under the back seat of my Super Cub floatplane. Still have the gun, but sadly not the Super cub!
A suggestion for saving what’s left of the stock… I’m pretty sure Boyd’s makes a laminate for these.
Sorry about the damage, Adam. I always take out insurance on expensive items shipped to me. Bummer!
Boyds makes new stocks for the 24. I know it sucks that the factory stock was busted, but new ones are available.
There's a savage 24 stock on eBay for $99 and a little extra on shipping. I used to see them at flea markets often. They weren't too rare around here, but haven't seen too many in the last couple of years
Hey WTW awsome Savage, i have my grandfather's in 22mag /20 g 3in . Watched him shoot alot of groundhogs .
Love the over under Guns. When I was Much Younger they were a big thing, then they just kinda went away. WTW very good find.
These are Combo guns originally designed as a woodsman survival gun. Shotgun for birds. Rifle for ground-game. I have a Baikal IZH-94, imported from Russia. It is a 12GA/.223. Beautiful wood, pretty brass triggers and shoots great. These types of guns are pretty awesome. Sucks about your broken stock.
they were popular when I was young and we had over lapping seasons for birds and deer and larger. Dad had the 30-30 / 12 gauge
Good looking Over under shotgun . You never know how something is going look like when shipping it. Hopefully you can get looking great again. Thanks for sharing. 👍🇺🇸
Awesome bingbang! I know the anger about having something damaged in shipping 😊. I ordered a 10/22 Ruger eagle etched that came scratched up, and the box screwed up. There's nothing like yours, but I'm sure the pain is the same. Brother, i am very sorry. Thank you for sharing.
Awesome bingbang!
A good wood worker might be the best choice if you are going to keep it.
Had one about 30 years ago, paid 100 dollars for it. .222 over 20 gauge. Wish I would of kept it. Good little gun.
Awesome I know a couple old timers that still have them I did some firing pin work on one of them that’s in .222/ 20 gauge they are sweet old rifles 👍🏼
I have one in 22lr over 410 with the case hardening..it's the model 24P like brand new...great little critter getter !!
i remember those from back in the early 80s the most common chamberings was 3030 223/222/ 22 mag/ 22lr and 20g and 12g for the shotgun . i had all ways wanted to but the 223/20 combo as they were very popular among the survivalist back in the day/ seens like there was a little thing-am-my whacky that allowed you to fire 22 mag out of the top barrel on the 223
My dad and uncle each had one in 22 Hornet and 12 gauge. They used it for PA fall turkey guns. Cool find.
Ive got a Savage 24 that is 223 over 12 gauge. Has screw in chokes. Never been fired, still has the tags on it. I bought it from an estate a few years ago.
That's so frustrating how they packed it so poorly. I hope you can get the stock repaired. I have a few of these, or something like these by Savage over the last few years. They were outside my price range, as much as I wanted them. One was the 30.30/ 12 gauge combo, actually.
A number of years ago I had a double barrel over and under that came in various configurations . The make was a Valmet and the model was a 412. I believe that there was some connection between Savage & Valmet on these guns. Enjoy it.
I wish I'd known you were going to be there. I've frequented that shop quite a bit and I've had good luck there.
A friend of mine had a Savage over and under back in the 60’s . We hunted and plinked a lot together gather on my family’s farm back then. I think that I remember it better by a 22 LR on today and a 3 inch 410 on the bottom. It was a fun gun although I never thought they were as good as a dedicated rifle or shotgun. I think they’re a good survival weapon, though.
Really cool thanks for sharing!
My Savage 24 bought on GB got damaged in shipment in the same place and two pieces broke off real clean. The seller did an insurance claim and gave me all my money back but gun smith told me to glue them back in place and hold with some rubber tubing and it came out all right. Mine is 22 mag and 20 gauge. I have a Russian gun, Baikal of the same design in 30-06 and 12 gauge and it has the rifle on the bottom and shotgun on top.
A good gunsmith can make it look like new. A friend has a 20 ga 22 mag.
I bet Boyds can make a new walnut stock for that. Just an option.
Evening WTW. I have wanted a Model 24 since I 1st shot one in 1972 at age 16. Three years ago I aquired a pristine Model 24 D(deluxe) case hardened receiver in 22 mag over 20 gage. One of my favorites.
Congrats on your find and am so sorry to hear about the shipping mishap. Can you get compensation from shipping company?
Back in the 60's, my Cousin had two of these rifles.
One was a 30-30/12 Gauge and the other was a .22/410 Gauge.
I was always very impressed with these rifles and wanted one but they were rare and expensive.
410 isn’t a gauge it’s a caliber, it’s the exception in the world of shotguns
@@jaydunbar7538😂 was gonna say the samething, almost exactly word for word 😅
Back in the early 70s my uncle had a 222 20 gauge over under that when you fired the20 it would break open and he had to have it repaired. A great gun .
My dad had one in .22/20 ga and I had the J-DL version .22 mag/20 ga. I just sold it last year. Great guns.
I remember those I always wanted one when I was a teenager hunting , i didn't realize that i was an ol timer till you pointed it out😀
I like my lever and bolts and so ons but the brake open love senders will stay . They do not mess up often. Mean more foods in the freezer. Nice even with the damage.
You just went to one of my favorite gun buying spots Mission Pawn is another place of mine it's like 20 minutes away from there...LoL Kansas is where is at....
Hey WTW! I was lucky enough to get a Savage 24d Series P in 22mag over 20 ga from am old timer who was downsizing as he headed towards retirement. Mine is in pristine condition and have shot the 22mag barrel a few times. Recently, I have seen them going for around $800-900. I got mine for $525 a few years ago. Nice gun. Sorry yours got banged up in shipping.
I’ve watched your channel for a while now and thought it was pretty cool that you picked up a rifle at a shop in my hometown that I frequently visit. Sorry to hear that it wasn’t packaged very well and ended up damaged in shipping.
Bigtime bummer
They were quite common in PA back in the day we referred to them as turkey guns
Good store, bought my first benchmade and a PTR 91 there!
I go in Olathe Gun shop off and on. I'm on the Missouri side so have to go through the hassle of having it shipped across state lines but it's a good place to go.
24V was always the one I wanted as a kid. Great find, just hate the shipping messed it up.
Nice find and i wouldve called the shipper from Tollivers so they could confirm condition ! I know a guy that has the 22wmr/20ga version
How do you get that secondary chip. Off the main . The 2nd dary chips don't look like it was load bearing. I'd wonder if some inspector smacked it for an inspection in the broke off in Three.
These were fairly common in the 70s growing up in VA. Several of my friends and family members used them during deer drives. Shotgun w/buckshot for up close, centerfire for longer quick shot. As I recall the centerfires were not terribly accurate and my Uncle moved on to a Valmet of the same style which were higher quality. Sorry to hear about the damage.
I had a 12 gauge w/ the 223 in a synthetic stock back in the 90s. Wish I had kept it. It shot sabots really well to 100 yards.
Hey, Who_Tee_Hoo, I learnt to shoot with one of these. My Father has 2 of them, the one I used alot when I was young, was a .22lr over a .410 shotgun. Later he found a .22 over 20 guage to add to his collection. I have really fond memories as a teenager stalking around bushes to bust bunnies.
They used to be everywhere. Most of them I saw were 22lr over 20 or 410 gauges. I always wanted one but couldn't afford one. I was raising 4 kids. Oh! Check with the dealer you nought it from. HE surly insured it.
LGS had a 22/ 20g. Thought it was over priced. Than I saw one on MarksmanTV, back when they could tell the prices. Bought that one for $150 less. Still playing with it. Also got a 357 mag insert for it. Love it, 3 guns in one.
Keep break clean , may be better to glue and clamp each side one at a time still attached to gun then remove stock and refinish it . I have a Winchester mod 42 the very same chips got broke . I glued both chips at once with Elmers white glue all , wrapped two strands off high grade electrical tape round and round stretching tape then put 2 worm gear steel clamps around tape and tightened. The tape keeps wood from marring. Then removed and refinished stock . Lot of trouble but still a 2 grand shotgun . Elmers is vey strong if clamped on clean break and gives you plenty of time to clamp .that’s really a pisser that they are so rough in shipping
Nice find! The wood can be repaired easily and you wouldn’t even see it. It’s a good gun, and not so common anymore in the US . Those are Grade A meat makers!
