Model of 1941 Johnson Semi-Automatic Rifle, with bayonet and sheath, #B0929, .30-06 cal., 23'' barrel, parkerized finish, walnut stock, with M1907 leather sling. Condition is excellent retaining approx. 97% original lightly thinning finish. Stock appears near new with light handling marks and near imperceptible hairline fissure, probably from shrinkage, which detracts little. Action remains crisp, bore is mirror bright. Accepted by collectors as a U.S. military small arm of WWII, as the Marine Corps used them briefly in the early part of the Pacific war. It would be extremely difficult to fine a nicer original example than this. Est.: $5,000-$7,500. (C&R)
