I'm still trying to understand how to age the 24V's. My firearms definietly exceed the date codes (only goes through 1970) on the attached date code document in the FAQ's page. I see little numbers circled on the barrel block, markings that MIGHT correspond to dates, but then again, both of my 24V's have more than one of these marks. All the typical markings are on the reciever, its just that I likely have 1980's firearms, and again the date codes only identify firearms through 1970. Any suggestions on where I can look for more info? Thanks all.

Mike,
I haven't been working on the 24V models in earnst yet, so I don't have a complete view. But here is what I can tell you that might move the bar a little closer for you.
The 24V line appears in the catalogs from 1967 through 1988. It is with surety I can tell you the 24V Series D models show up in 1979. Because serial numbers started in 1968, and I have found no 24V with them, then the 24V was made prior to 1968. The 24V-A has some with and without serial numbers so in started production in 1968. If you have a 24V Series B or Series C model, then it was produced sometime between 1969 and 1978.
Sorry I don't have more for you, but I hope to get there soon.
John
