Interesting, I missed that.

Thanks for the input. There is no doubt the sight was altered, of course, but the crown looks fine. It's just an odd one that will have to move on now.

It's an original barrel, but why it shorter?

M1941 JSAR Barrel 19.25 inches long! I had a rifle with this barrel and never noticed it was too short until I put three together on my wall. BIG shock! I replaced the barrel, and here is the short one. Any clue other than someone just decided to one shorter?

Thanks for sharing. How is it overall,...bore, etc.? Have you gotten a chance to shoot?

The bore is fine, but I doubt I'll shoot this one. 

Another Johnson Rifle s/n B0616, because a man can't have too many Johnsons.

The first bipod is definitely a Johnson bipod.  If it is one I built it will have "JS" stamped under the feet and inside the main plate.  I used to sell them for $1500 some years ago.  If it is an original I would estimate $2000 plus.  You will have to make a front mount to replace the rifle style forearm front block.  For newcomers to website, factory started with BAR bipods, but army stopped supply, so Johnson Co. designed their own.  I also built a few BAR style, also marked "JS".

So, the reproductions were $1500? The one I posted is a WWII original and appears to be quite scarce.

And the main question is, what are these worth? I haven't seen one offered or sold. This bipod was in a box of MG parts a friend had in his "good to have" pile, and he had no price on it.

I believe this is a Johnson LMG Bipod, but there must be a fitting missing. It won't attach as it is. Expert opinions needed.

Thanks for the assistance, I now have the correct barrel.

Johnson Rifle research request. If anyone has data on this rifle serial number B8924 please advise and thanks for looking.

Also, if there are other M1941 rifles with similar rack numbers for comparison to this one that may prove useful as well.

Thanks for the help. I need an extractor and prefer an original, but a new one may be better for shooting.

Cancel that, I found one, but I still need the cross bolt screws if anyone has a source.
