Do any of you remember these?

[parrothead127]

I never owned one, but a friend of mine did when we were growing up. Over/under, 410 on the bottom 22lr on top. I wished I had one today, me thinks it’d make a great squirrel gun. I remember he and I would take his out and my single shot 410 and bust cans and bottles. We were 12-13. Anybody have one theses days?

My dad has a 20 guage on bottom and 22 on top. He has had it ever since I can remember. I hunted with it some. Never was too crazy about it though.

My dad has one that was his father's, I used it some as a kid 30yrs ago. Didn't shoot the .410 barrel all that much as the shells were as expensive then as they are now.

Yep, had a .22wmr/20ga once, made by Savage. Model 24, maybe??..It got away from me in some trade, and I wish I still had it.

 

[Dr. Strangelove]

Ours is a Sears Roebuck, plastic stock. The selector switch was broken so it would fire both barrels at once if you weren't careful. We had it fixed but I haven't messed with it since then.

My granddaddy had one I hunted with when I was younger. I wish I had it now, I don't know who got it when he died.
It was a .410 with 22lr on the top.

My father had one, 22 magnum over 20 gauge
My uncle had one, 222 over 20 gauge. Used for turkey hunting in the fall, at the time a rifle was legal in Pennsylvania.

Love the Savage model 24. My dad has one. 30/30 over 20 gauge. It’s the ultimate game getter. Savage makes a newer version called the model 42.

 

[Blackston]

I had a 22 / 410
That I got on trade for a marlin 22 with a clip from a boy in my neighborhood... He liked mine so much because it shot fast !! I was happy to trade him . Then I found out it was left to him by his grandad. He tried to get it back and I wouldn’t let him ( I was kind of a butt ) .... Well life happens and people grow up and I still had this guys family heirloom I tracked him down and made a trade with him his papas gun for a marlin like I traded him . I miss that gun but it made his Day !!!

It still is.

 

[oops1]

I have one that’s been passed down through the family

 

[fishfryer]

I know of a man that collects them,there are many,many combinations of caliber and shotgun. There were two brothers that I knew as a kid that got a .22/410 apiece for Christmas one year,boy they were pretty.

 

[specialk]

I got one.....tad bit too heavy for me to tote all day....but it is a good squirrel gun....

Savage .410/.22, my Dad bought one for me in 1955, I was seven years old. It was a great gun for a kid, I couldn’t cock the hammer by myself. I never shot an animal with the .22 but I killed my first dove with the .410, ..it was perched in a tree...Fun memories.

Didn't the air force make a similar gun for survival- 22 hornet on top, 410 on the bottom?

 

[CurLee]

My father has a Model 24 in .222 over 20ga.. I think I'm the only one to ever have shot it.

Seemed like a good option for predator hunting where shots could be in open fields or jumping out of the brush at 20 steps.

I soon moved onto carrying a .22-250 on a bipod with an 870 across the lap.

I ran into a guy once that must have had fifty or sixty of those in all kinds of calibers and gauge combos. He loved them, apparently. My uncle had a .30-30/20 gauge, and the .410/.22.

yes, at least one branch of service(army maybe)...my dad has one he got at a flea market about 45 years ago....real crude made gun, folded up to slip in a backpack...springfield made a replica a few years back.....

 

[Thunder Head]

There still quite popular in Europe.

Mostly a big game rifle calib. over a 20 / 12 though.

Found a guy lost on our lease on opening day in Upson County 30+ years ago. He was toting a over under in 12 gauge/30-06. Only one I ever saw.
