  1. The only difference I can see between my rifle that sold for $4,825 and the one that sold a week before at $6,400 was in the wood.

    Mine had much more "beauty marks" and his had a lower serial number. 

    Guess some folks would rather have one that looks "new" versus one that possibly saw action???  

    Personally, I go for guns that have a story to tell.....but that's me.

    JSAR #1967 is listed in the production log but no part numbers or disposition is given.  This one came out of the auction in Indiana a few years ago as part of a lot of 10 or 12 JSARs.  It would be most interesting to know the history of this particular JSAR.  Sample, gift, reject ???? 

    If you read the seller's description they claim the rifle is "100% Matching" and if you are not seeing part numbers listed for this rifle how could they have verified any of this?


  3. **Decided to move this one to GunBroker so feel free to place a bid......starts at only one cent and NO RESERVE!!**

    **The rifle and bayonet are offered in different listings**

     

    ****SCROLL DOWN THREAD TO SEE PHOTOS........HOPEFULLY THEY ARE ABLE TO BE VIEWED NOW***

    Thanks for looking!

    Hello all,

    Offering up M1941 with serial number 7790 along with the bayonet and scabbard.  
    Based on what I have seen selling I feel my price of $5,500 plus shipping is fair AND firm.

    Serious buyers please call or email me directly at 425-785-0093 - tomgraham01@msn.com

    I am in the Prescott Valley, AZ area and this will need to ship to a C&R or FFL and will come from a private party.

    I have this listed on other military forums so be sure to contact me soon if you are interested,

    Thanks for looking,

    Hey I am in Prescott as well. We should meet at the PV gun show in April.  Talk JSAR for a bit.

    Ryche

    Ryche, good to hear from another JSAR owner......I am available to meet before the show if you are able......I work for a custom home builder in Prescott so I am on the road most of the day.  You can email me at tomgraham01@msn.com and we can arrange it.

  5. Thank you Mitch, 

    I just measured mine and the length is about 1/16" under 11-3/4" and has been slightly ground/sharpened about 1" from the tip 

    The bayonet has 4-digit numbers stamped in two locations.....on the rivet and on the barrel ring that fits over the muzzle and these numbers do not match each other.  I assume that is the correct location for military issued bayonets but I am still waiting for my book by Canfield to show up so I can do more research.

    The scabbard is in OK condition but has some checking/cracking at the point end and the strap is showing cracking/thinning as well. 

    The asking price for this bayonet with scabbard is $425 and the seller sent it to me for me to inspect before sending payment.  He did inform me of the point being sharpened.

     


  6. Thank you Brian for that incredibly quick response!!

    ***Very interesting to learn that exactly 76 years ago today this weapon was transferred to the NPC***

    The bolt #7069 and locking cam #6338 are the only numbers I can confirm as a matching to this rifle so far, I will have to further disassemble to check some of the other part numbers.

    I recently acquired this rifle from the family of Fred Wells the rifle maker here in Prescott, AZ.  Fred's brother Homer ended up with this rifle after WWII

    I was told that Homer had a few M1941's and this one was the best shooter so he sold the rest.  


  7. I recently acquired an original correct bayonet for my M1941 and it looks like about 1" of the tip has been lightly sharpened along the way and I want to be sure it has not been shortened.

    Can someone in the know give me some dimensions on an unaltered bayonet so I can compare to what I have??  

    Regards.
