Description:

Blade front and adjustable 1,000 meter rear sights, the model and patent markings on top of the receiver, and a five-pointed star over "CRANSTON/ARMS/CO." in a triangle on the right side below the rear sight. The barrel is marked ".30-'06/41" on the flange and "J.A./30-'06" on the chamber. Fitted with a two-piece stock featuring a checkered steel buttplate. Included with the group is a Johnson spike bayonet, 12 inches overall with a 7 3/4 inch blade and a leather sheath. In August 1940, the Netherlands Purchasing Commission ordered 10,200 Johnson Automatic rifles to arm colonial troops in the Dutch East Indies. The Japanese invaded and captured the Dutch colonies in December 1941 before most of the Johnson Model 1941 rifles could be delivered. The U.S. Marine Corps tested the Johnson rifle in 1941 and, in early 1942, obtained a limited number of the Dutch contract Model 1941 rifles as a war expedient rifle until they could receive the Springfield M1 Garand rifle, with a few of these rifles issued to the 1st Parachute Battalion.

Rating Definition:

Excellent, with 98% plus of the parkerized finish, showing some mild handling marks and edge wear, along with a small amount of spotting. The stock is also excellent, with some scuffing and dents. Mechanically functions fine, but bolt does not lock back. Bayonet is fine.
