Harley,
Ran across the subject rifle in a local pawn shop. SN: 51943 It is a .22 LR(?) smokeless & ?-less. Made by Remington Arms Co., previously Remington U.M.C. Co, Browning Patent blah-de-blah. Appears to be the basic Browning 22-auto design EXCEPT it has a quick takedown barrel, which are 1/2 interrupted threads. Wood is field grade, no figuring. Screws show buggering from improperly sized screwdriver. Shop wants $300. What's the history on these, collectability and range of value from 98% to 60%, and NRA excellent to NRA good? Thanks Mykl |

MYKL:
My records indicate, from your descripton, that you have a Remington Model 24, takedown rifle. It was designed by John M Browning, and mfg'd from 1922-1935. VALUES: EXC=$400.00 POOR=$100.00 HJN |
