Check that operating spring length

Howdy tinsoldier from another Tampa Bay area member. I'd be more than glad to take one of those bayonets off your hands for my JSAR since you have one extra.

One those stories that always happens to someone else. Nice score!

Number 1 in the first section should be interesting since the background check doesn't always work for alerting the FFL. Who does the ATF go after when that happens?

Iternet

That mark is from the ejector. Should probably replace the recoil spring.

Howdy neighbor...If you're the same on the FAL Files

I looped a box end wrench over each handle of a FAL tool to get enough leverage to break mine loose. Also sprayed some screw loose/break free product down the top side and let it sit overnite. It was orange and had a strong scent.

Could you do a few with Farrah Fawcett holding a JSAR?

I always use BLO to clean. Goop it on, rub it in and wipe off. Repeat as you see fit.

So so sad...same feeling after seeing a G or K43 butchered.

About the same condition as mine. Always liked the look of a used gun.

I would say NOT an original...Plus the wrist on that stock looks too thin.

Sounds like even gun terminology is getting bitten by the PC bug. It's either hardware or the individual parts name to me.

The bolt doesn't appear to be locked. Is that because the barrel isn't correct as Mr Scott mentioned? Definitely wouldn't fire it until that's addressed.

That stock was mentioned in this thread.

Since jimbo doesn't know much about it, I'd be wary. $400 is a lot to spend not knowing if everything is cut/drilled correctly. If it were a new/old stock Joe Scott made, there'd be a JS stamped somewhere...under the butt plate I think.

If you own a FAL and own a buttstock tool, then that's what you use for the Johnson. I had to loop a box end wrench over each side of the handle for more leverage too. https://www.dsarms.com/p-13608-dsa-fal-buttstock-removal-combo-tool.aspx

Always good to see to these resurrected. Glad you didn't give up.

Now that I've thought about this overnight, there was a thread about this from 2 years ago. Looks like the same gun with new paint.

Thanks to all!

Looks like a Krag buttplate.

Got one years ago and I think it's slightly different, but don't recall if it was from Sarco or Gunparts. I don't think there's as much of a pinch in the center. Mine is very U shaped and matches what came in the Johnson. This one is more lightbulbish. Repro??
