Bryant Ridge's Analysis:
The Savage Model 242 Series C is a distinctive over/under shotgun produced between 1977 and 1981, designed as a specialized variation of the well-known Savage Model 24. Unlike its predecessor, which combined a shotgun and rifle barrel, the Model 242 chambers both barrels for .410 3" Magnum shells, making it a lightweight and versatile option for small game hunting, pest control, and recreational shooting. Built with 24-inch separated blued barrels, full chokes, and a silver bead sight, it delivers dependable accuracy and performance in the field. Its single trigger, exposed hammer, and barrel selector lever built into the hammer provide straightforward operation while retaining the rugged simplicity that Savage firearms are known for.

Aesthetically, the Model 242 Series C maintains a traditional sporting appearance with its checkered walnut stock and forearm, offering both durability and a secure grip. The over/under design adds balance and control, while the compact .410 bore chambering makes it manageable for younger shooters or those seeking a light-recoiling firearm. With its limited production run and unique chambering, the Model 242 has become a collectible variation within the Savage lineup, valued by enthusiasts for its practicality, craftsmanship, and role as a specialized adaptation of the iconic Model 24.
