M24R

[Raptorman2014]

Are there anymore M24R's being released?

 

[Trigger Monkey]

Probably not, those were released like six years ago and I think there were only 2,000 of them to begin with. The only way to get one now is probably the secondary market.

Thats what I was afraid of .... They just had 308 and 300 WM, correct?

 

[Trigger Monkey]

Just .308, I never saw one offered in .300 WM.

Nevermind, just realized its not a M24R but a regular M24.

Just out of curiosity why would you want one ?
You can build a better rifle with a true custom action for considerably less money.

A lot of us appreciate and own rifles like this, it's not always about having the latest and greatest... if you don't understand I can't explain it to you.

I was trying to find one in 300 min mag to match my 308 version.

100% agreed, basically wanted a cheap "M24" and I thought it was interesting to have prior service stock (if it could only tell the stories). A brand new M24 was 3k and M24R was 2K. I bought mine to shoot and not to collect.

Here is the 1000 yard group with my M24R with hand loads.

It's cool to see Rob's reaction about the stock.

I fully understand the appreciation and ownership of rifles like the M24 considering the first time I got to shoot and qualify with an AR I knew I had to have one after that. But none of them i own now are even close to the original milspec rifle because there are far better choices that goes for the M24 as well.

If its a nostalgia thing that's cool but I personally would choose a custom action and go from there but that's just my preference, wasn't bashing or trying to piss in anyone's cheerios was just genuinely curious.

Way better caliber options as well depending on use......

That's cool I hope you can find what your looking for, maybe even with a little battle worn miles on it.

What optic?

 

[Trigger Monkey]

That's a PVS-10 day/night optic. Piece of shit is what it actually is.

I love my M24R, a very historic firearm. Very accurate and fun to shoot.
