Calling all M24s
Calling all M24s
A few years ago, these seemed to be all the rage, I was seeing a new find every week or so. Lately, not so much. If you have one post it up. Go dig out your Lottas. Mine to start. FWIW I found this in a pawn shop for a 91/30 price.

Of all tyrannies, a tyranny sincerely exercised for the good of its victims may be the most oppressive. It would be better to live under robber barons than under omnipotent moral busybodies. The robber baron's cruelty may sometimes sleep, his cupidity may at some point be satiated; but those who torment us for our own good will torment us without end for they do so with the approval of their own conscience.

Leave it as it is. The ages have been at work on it and man can only mar it.

Enough of all of these German rifles for now. Let's see some from the Swiss contract!

Re: Calling all M24s
Lots of nice rifles being posted up. Thanks guys. I found some more detail shots of mine. Mine seems to only be SA marked on the cleaning rod. It does have a D stamp.

Re: Calling all M24s
Nice batch of Lotta rifles!
Good idea Millman!
My one & only came home with me from a gunshow a couple years ago. It was the first Finn that I purchased.
The hand guard is MIA & the stock has a major repair.....I haven't & won't be shooting this one.

Re: Calling all M24s
I don't think I've ever posted my Bohler-Stahl...



The next two photos were before I ever cleaned the rifle. A little rust to deal with.











Some nice Chatellerault marked parts.




Possible Austrian heritage to this stock.



Thanks for looking.
