 == Models / Variants ==
-===Full-Sized Models===
+The AR-24 series was available in two major variants, the full sized "AR-24", and the compact model, the AR-24K. There were some different options for both sights as well as grip textures etc. For example, both handguns could come either with more plain-looking serrations on the grip, and typical fixed handgun sights with three white dots. Alternatively, both were available with more aggressive grip checkering, as well as an upgraded rear sight, adjustable for windage. The individual models' naming scheme appears to have went like this:
-The AR-24/15 Standard model - has a parkerized finish and fixed dovetailed rear sights and a proprietary front sight with three white paint dots.
+=== Full-Sized Models ===
-The AR-24/15C Tactical Custom Model - has checkering machined on the front and back grip straps and its rear notch sight is adjustable for windage.
+'''AR-24/15 Standard Model''' - has a parkerized finish and fixed dovetailed rear sights and a proprietary front sight with three white paint dots.
-===Compact Models===
+=== Compact Models ===
-The AR-24K/13 Compact - same features as the standard model full-sized version, but shorter barrel / holds fewer rounds.
+'''AR-24K/13 Compact''' - same features as the standard model full-sized version, but shorter barrel / holds fewer rounds.
-AR-24K/13C Compact Tactical Custom - same upgraded features as the full-sized "Tactical Custom Model", but also with shorter barrel / lower ammo capacity.
+'''AR-24K/13C Compact Tactical Custom''' - same upgraded features as the full-sized "Tactical Custom Model", but also with shorter barrel / lower ammo capacity.
 '''Note:''' Other sources show the individual model naming scheme to be slightly different. For example, [https://www.thetruthaboutguns.com/gun-review-armalite-ar-24/ Dan Zimmerman's review of the ArmaLite AR-24 (from The Truth About Guns)] shows the naming of his full-sized AR-24 with the upgraded features to be the "ArmaLite AR-24-15-C", different from the aforementioned naming scheme, but apparently identical in meaning given the features on Dan's handgun.
