savage model 24 22/410
my father in - law has a savage model 24 o/u 22lr over a .410 he may be willing to part with, we need to know the approximate value of the gun. he believes he bought it around 1952. it has a wood stock with some small scratches, and the barrels have been re-blued. he can't find the serial # , i believe he gave me the patent #. we would like to know a fair price for the gun... i know it has been shot very little.
thanks for your help george

Did Savage ever make a non-youth model 24 in .22/.410 with 18" barrels? I saw one recently and could not determine if the barrels were cut to this length or if the gun was cobbled together from different guns. 0 -
According to the 24th ed. of the blue book of gun values, the prices range from $160 for a gun in original 100% condition down to $55 for a gun in 60% condition.
Prices can vary a lot from what the book says, so use this information only as a starting point. In some areas these are pretty popular and will bring more money. Where I'm at there isnt much intrest, so they have to be priced fairly low to sell.
You might want to search current and past auctions here on GB to get a little better idea of what these guns are selling for. Hope this helps.0 -
A price of $125-150 should be a fair price for a family sale. I'd gladly pay that for one, or be willing to let one of mine go to a relative at that price.

I gave $225 for a pristine example (pictured below) and ~$130 for a good fair shooter. For one as you describe, I think the $125 range would be about tops. These guns have kind of a cult following (myself included).
The different selector type does seem to change the desireability status of these guns, but oddly doesn't seem to change the value.

In my area (upstate NY) these are very popular and don't come on the market often. The ones with walnut stocks and the reciever-mounted selector button are the most in demand (the earlier tenite-stocked ones aren't in much demand unless in mint condition, and then only to Stevens collectors). Birch stocks are less desirable than walnut; most people also don't like the "monte-carlo" styled walnut stocks on some of them. Some people like the ones with scope grooves; some don't care. The ones with the hammer-mounted barrel selectors are also popular, but bring less money.
The later ones with a sidelever opener or the opener on the trigger guard are not in demand (cheap plastic parts and rough finish detract some). .22LR/.410 is most popular, followed by .22WRM/.410, and .22/20ga (some don't like the balance of the 20 much).
FYI I paid $275 for a near-new .22WRM/.410 with an excellent birch stock about a year ago. That was high, but I just couldn't find one for less, having looked a while. And it is a real handy gun; rifle barrel is surprisingly accurate. I put an old 2 3/4X Redfield scope on its grooved .22WRM barrel. Almost all the good old ones (pre-1968) will have no serial number.0 -
i would really like to thank all of you for your input. i have e-mailed your comments to my father in-law, will let you know the final outcome... again i wish to thank each and everyone of you

I'm looking for a Savage 24 in 22/410... 0 -
Has any one ever seen one of these with a Tenite stock? Are they more or less desirable? 0 -

I believe the early production models, ( 1940's era ) with Stevens markings, ( Stevens was/is a subsidiary of Savage ) were available with Tenite stocks. I am not aware of any of the Savage marked 24's, ( 1950's+ production ) having Tenite stocks?0
