Serial # "D" prefix puts the manufacture date somewhere between March of 1979 and August of 1982. With the checkering on the stock and being a rimfire, that would make it a 24-D Deluxe model according to my catalogs for those years. Only other variants that had checkering those years were the 24V (centerfire cartridges) and the 242 (both barrels .410 gauge).
