WINCHESTER 24 HATERS
 

So for all you 24 haters here is what is possible. Full checkering on the beavertail forend as well as fine checkering on the slimmed down stock. Also a solid red Winchester branded recoil pad as well as a grip cap. It makes a fine double with its 30" IC and Full barrels. So is a 24 two Model 37s put together or an overweight 21? Anyway, it came out nicely. It is absolutely the tightest locking gun I have due to the mass of the frame. Takes two men to close it. The ugly duck turned into an ugly swan.

nice one jerry....charlie

Well done!

I never thought the model 24 was an "ugly duckling" My family has had a few over the years and proved to be good shooting and handling guns., Did what they were designed to do and did it well, IMO.

My Dad has and now I do have a model 24 16 gauge with 28” barrels. He harvested everything from ducks to white tails with it over the 50 years he hunted with it. Probably made the prettiest shot on an 8 point buck in Northern Dutchess County NY as ever was made. From about 40 yards the buck came from out of a swamp and leaped over the slate wall and the old man put 2 pumpkin balls in his neck and he fell dead right in the middle of the logging road. Hit him in mid air.

WIN.--M-24
 

Back when We had Pheasants I shot 21 birds in one season straight, before I touched the back trigger. The GUN, a M-24 WIN.--12ga. of course. 28 IN barrels imp & mod chokes. ( I was a good Shot back than. )

I'm still trying to locate my first fluid steel barrel shotgun, a 20 gauge Model 24, serial number 26,497, 26" cylinder and modified. Bought in 1958 at Don's Gun Shop in Falls Church, VA for fifty bucks. I think I passed Dave at the door of the shop as he was leaving with a frown on his face.

what happened to that gun bill........charlie

Sold to a local MD guy who I think I heard was moving to or lived in Texas. I think it was sold off of our skeet club bulletin board. Sold for fifty bucks, in new condition.

THE BEST Thing about M-24 WIN.,If you ever have a problem with them,which is very few, you can fix them your self. You do not have to send them to a HIGH PRICED Gunsmith, Hell any Farmer Smith can fix IT Him Self, Just Look at all the MONEY You can SAVE, You can buy a few more M-24's.
