Remington Model 24


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 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 that hooked into the receiver and clipped onto the trigger guard was available.
In this photo of John Browning 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 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 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.
