M24A2 barrel

[Kspence49]

Does anyone know where I can get an M24A2 barrel done up with the AEM M24 suppressor seating ledge?

Bonus question, what is a good action to work off of? I’ve heard the modern Remington actions are junk.

Clone correct would be a Remington C prefix long action.

There's many new actions that run better then a remington. Depends on budget.

Yeah there are many actions but not as many that don’t have integrated rails from what I can find. That seems to be the standard these days. Are the c stamped actions any good or are they just clone correct?

Also, contact Chad about the barrel, or?

Whatever you do, please stay far away from the fake M24 stuff that PTG is selling! If you have money to burn, real/legit Remington M24 receivers do pop up for sale fom time to time, but they're quite expensive and you need to know what you're looking at before buying one of these M24 receivers

The "C" prefix serial number Remington 700 long action receivers from the early to mid-1990's are typically very good quality, especially when compared to more recently made receivers. The C prefix receivers are 100% correct for an M24 build, since the M24's were first built around 1988 (the very first ones are very rare and made with B prefix receivers). You can also use E and G prefix receivers for your M24 build, the E's were around in the early 2000's and the G's were around in the mid to later 2000's.

If you're doing a build from a very specific time-frame then these serial number prefix date ranges are important. If you don't care about the date and just want to build any old M24, then it doesn't really matter what you choose for the receiver prefix (just make sure that you're using a C, E, or G prefix receiver). Also, don't use an RR prefix serial number receiver for a regular M24 build, those receivers would be more correct for an M2010 build.

I hope this information helps you out

This definitely helps out! Are C, E, and G all similar quality or did they degrade in their craftsmanship? One thing I want out of this in addition to being correct is it to be a joy to use so that I’m inclined to take it out and shoot it.

Also in response to your other message I’m probably not after an M24 marked action because I have read about the fakes that hit the market a while back and it’s not worth the risk, and I don’t know if I want to pay the legit M24 stamp up charge right now.
