I have a Chilean Johnson that was purchased from Navy Arms. I think I paid $500.00 for it, mas o menos. It does have the peculiar sling, reddish brown finish, muzzle cover and bayonet/sheath. My rifle looked to be unused. Unfortunately, Navy Arms did about the worst job possible in terms of marking the underside of the barrels in giant lettering that really spoiled the rifle. Never seen such an egregious an import mark anywhere. A real shame. My stock was split at the wrist, very common. It finally came completely apart even though I never fired it. I found a guy in Ft. Myers, FL who made a replacement for me. You can't tell it from the real one, almost. The barrels for these rifles were made in Mexico. The sleeves were marked 30-06 and the barrels were marked 7mm. I had the opportunity to buy another 7mm barrel years ago from Armex I think. I looked at the bore and it appeared to be rusty so I stored it away and forgot about it. A couple of years ago, I pulled it out and gave it a good cleaning. Bore is mint. I think the barrel was refinished but I can't be sure. The Chilean Johnson Rifle story is very interesting.
