Rare Johnson Model 1941 Rifle With Bayonet
Description: This is an excellent Johnson M1941 Rifle from World War II! The original finish is in very good condition with minor wear along the barrel but no major areas of issue. The wood is in great shape aside from a very minor chip near the mag tube and a few scratches. Unfortunately, a previous owner did add an aftermarket buttpad to it though. Bore has strong rifling but some frost and freckling throughout. Comes with rare, original bayonet and its scabbard. Only 20,000 of this model were manufactured! _______________________ The Johnson Semi-Automatic rifle was invented by Captain Melvin M. Johnson, Jr. of the US Marine Corps Reserve, also the inventor of the Johnson Light Machine Gun, in 1936. After development completed, manufacture was commenced in 1941 by Johnson Automatics, Incorporated, and its subsidiary, The Johnson Automatics Manufactured Company, at Cranston, Rhode Island. The M1941 was ordered by the Netherlands for issue to the KNIL in the Dutch East Indies, but the Japanese invaded the islands before the rifles could be shipped from California. At this time, the U.S. Marine Corps found itself in need of a modern fast-firing infantry rifle, and acquired some rifles from the Dutch East Indies shipment for issue to its Paramarine battalions then preparing to deploy for action in the Pacific theatre. By all accounts, the M1941 performed acceptably in combat with the Marines in the early days of the Pacific fighting. SOLD Curio/Relic: Yes Rifle Caliber: .30-06 Springfield |
