The is also the Valmet 412 series of rifle/shotgun double. The .222 Rem over 12 gauge was once the most prized turkey gun in Penn's Woods when there were 2 seasons (Spring and Fall) and one was rifle legal. Savage may have even marketed the Valmet at one point but I'm not sure if they were re-badged with the Savage name. They were definitely a level or two higher quality than the 24 models.

The 30-30/12 g I saw years ago was very nice with walnut and much nicer than the .22/410 versions. Modern threaded chokes would make it very versatile. Shame they don't make one, it would be a great truck gun.

Thanks for that.

Look what that Savage Model 24D is selling for today, certainly alot more than $122.65.
Try $467.00 with $30.00 shipping and probably $25.00 paperwork fee on the other end.
But I'd bet it's worth it.

Too bad Savage Firearms is not producing these firearms, now that preppers are looking for just such a tool. They’re getting hard to find.
