Is it an original barrel?

Question for the forum.

I was lucky enough to purchase this barrel thru a member of this site. It is a good barrel regardless, but I was wondering if it is original. I am questioning the 30 06? I have a Johnson barrel without 30 06 markings. Both have the Johnson I/O marking with a dagger. But only one is marked Johnson 30 06. I looked for it in "the book" but could not find it.

Thanks in advance

It's original.

With the 30 06 or without or both?

It is an original, as produced, 100% genuine Johnson rifle barrel. Markings are correct. There probably will also be a "J" located somewhere on the exterior near the chamber.

Every original JSAR .30-'06 barrel I have ever inspected has been so marked
