I just picked up this gun. I traded my Ruger sr40c for it. Thought it was a cool gun but had never heard of them. I'm in my late 20's ANyhoo. Serial # starts with B47.... I would like to know a little history on the gun and what it's worth. My pic is not showing up very good. I'll check again tonight but also found some markings that I believe is an SP oval. I'm a newbie. Thanks everyone!

See the info on page one for the link on how to date your firearm; in addition, the sticky by Odell has lots of information.
In the meantime, welcome. It's nice to know you 'youngsters' are interested in this oldie!

Thank you for the information. I just get confused because the B serial # would be the 50' but from what I have read the gun wasn't made until the late 60's....?
Thanks for the welcome and yes I love the oldies!!

NEWSAVY,
This is just for your knowledge any anyone else who might read this thread. If your model 24 has no serial number then it was made before October 1968. If it has a serial number then it was after October 1968. There has a been a few people on the board here recently that have confused the serial numbers that start with a letter with the Savage Boss codes stamps of those guns that don't have a serial number.
The 24V Series B the 3rd gun in the 24V line and was only produced for a couple of years in the late 1970's. As far as value, it would depend on things like condition, where in the country you're located, caliber/gauge combination, etc.. But most likely between the $300-$500 range based on other 24V Series B guns sold that I've seen.
