  1. HELP ! I can't locate the hammer block pin !!! Any photos would be of great assistance ! Thank you
  2. Well the hammer block pin I can't locate so unable to take down further but the following are accounted for: Original : Bolt # 2180 Locking Cam # 1439 Extractor # 2132 Not Matching : Firing Pin #0043 Barrel #886A I wouldn't have thought the barrel and firing pin too match anyway but very interested to match hammer block , hammer and magazine.
  3. Thank you for you response, The family member with all records is away for three weeks so upon her return I will collect and post for further info. I will post photos this weekend- tried to but wouldn't except my files - maybe to big. I know this was issued to him as this is why the family held so dear for all these years and i have heard about his service for years
  4. Just to add :it hasn't seen the light of day for many years and I am presently trying to get from my friend the full history of the weapon and where his grandfather was posted etc. hopefully with photos etc. He as am to understand has been in possesion of it since issue . Interesting history . I can post photos etc. if this helps in obtaining any further information, He passed away a number of years ago and it has been sitting in a garage for many years .The family out of sentimental value has held on to it for now and as I intend to restore it they allowed me to purchase it in good faith. Thank you
  5. I recently obtained a Johnson Automatics 1941 from a close friend who's grandfather was issued it and used it in ww2 and brought it back with him. It is in good overall condition considering it is a action used weapon and has his initials carved in the stock . It is # 2074 with no prefix letter and bolt #2180 . Although I have no intention on selling it altough I am curious of its value and am considering a full restoration . Also any info from the factory would be appreciated - issue date etc.
