  1. SPF to mbpope . Thanks to all who looked . Chris
  2. Good morning gentlemen . I've been away for awhile because I sold off most of my gun collection of 40+ years over the last 3-4 years , including my 1941 Johnson . I've been going through all the small stuff I still have , and I came across a small lot of Johnson parts . I'd like to sell them as one lot for $250 OBO delivered to the lower 48 . The lot includes one Numrich repo rear sight , 1 original rear sigh with a J. Scott sight block , the cut up original block , barrel latch assembly , 4 extractors , magazine spring , two cross pins with spring , and a small assortment of screws , pins , and springs which I've forgotten what they are , but I hope the pictures will allow you to identify . Thanks for looking . You can e-mail me at ottsparts (AT) Hotmail (DOT) com . Chris
  3. Wouldn't you know it , just after I sold off all my magazines ! Chris
  4. Will do , It's yours if he doesn't snag it . Chris
  5. I found one more stray mag , Joseph . It's not worth the shipping to send just one . Are you going to the SAR show in Dec. ? I can deliver it to you there . Chris
  6. Mags are all sold to Joseph . Thanks for your help , Brian. Chris
  7. PM sent
  8. Thanks for the info . I guess I'll take any reasonable offer on them then . Chris
  9. No intrest at all ? Chris
  10. I don't believe anyone has posted these . If they have been , I'm sorry for the duplicate post . Rifle for sale , first item listed : http://www.legacy-collectibles.com/ww2-collectibles/rifles/us/ Bayonet for sale , about 12th item listed : http://www.legacy-collectibles.com/ww2-collectibles/edged-weapons/ I don't own the store nor do I work for them ( though I think I'd love to be thier test - firer , by golly ) . Chris
  11. Gentlemen : I have decided that my quest to aquire a JLM is just not in the cards . I am offering up for sale my lot of 20 magazines I bought decades ago . I believe I paid $50 each for them back in the '80s . I would like to get my money back , but I am open to any offers . Shipping would be at actual cost . http://s296.photobucket.com/user/emmagee1917/library/1941%20Johnson%20magazines Thanks , Chris
  12. The cheeks were added " later " as a step of the manufacturing process , not " later " as at somewhere else . No rifle left the factory with an incomplete stock. Chris
  13. Ummmm.....The bolt stop is the little barrel shaped block aft of the bolt and forward of the bolt stop plate . While I don't know for sure , I would think it would be most unwise to pull the trigger on a gun without one. Chris
  14. Actually , the M1 was designed for the 172 gr load . The return to the 150 gr load had nothing to do with the Garand . We found in WW1 that our 150gr load did not have the long range punch of the other MG ammo , ie , we were out gunned . The 172 gr load was developed so that we could have machine gun " artillery " . The WW1 surplus was so great that the 172 load really was not issued till the mid 30s . By then we had moved on past using the MG for artillery and the need for the M1 round was gone . The M1 round started to be issued . It kicked a lot more and scores dropped . It also went further , and problems of stray rounds leaving the ranges and falling outside of them lead to the M2 development and reintroduction of the 150 gr load . With the lack of need , poor scores , and range problems , the M2 became the issued round . The M1 was dropped and Garand adjusted his M1 slightly to be reliable with the M2 ammo . Chris
  15. I've had the urge to make / buy a 1941 JLMG semi-copy for quite some time . I'd be interested in your rifle at $1200 . I'd pay the frt and dealer fee on my end . You can keep the scope and mounts. Chris
