Someday, maybe, we’ll find an original barrel.  Disassembling, cleaning, and reassembling was easier than I thought. I enjoyed it too! I’m glad the family kept it. 

Thank you Brian!  I’m glad my pictures were adequate.  I’ll send a couple more once assembled. 

Interesting.  I guess we should be very happy many were reassembled correctly!  I am curious about the barrel. It has no serial number and no bayonet lug...clearly a replacement and the only part on the list without a number. 

Sadly, no matching numbers. It’s a beautiful rifle nonetheless.  Thank you again for the research Brian!  

I can’t thank you enough Brian!  I will take a close look and let you know if anything matches. 

Greetings to all from a new member!  I have read your posts for a long time...thank you for the information and entertainment. My family has had a Johnson for a long time and I am hoping to get some history on it if any is available. I’m happy to report that serial number 8796 is cleaned, sighted and ready for service if called upon!  Oorah!
