Posted March 4, 2010 · Report post I have a sporterized 1941 Johnson serial # 7309 (no prefix). I would appreciate any information that I can get for it. I am a new member of the forum as of today. My plans are to convert the rifle back to it's original military configuration. Any comments/advice would be greatly appreciated! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Posted March 5, 2010 · Report post Hey Welcome to the board. These are the guys to ask about the info you requested. Its a good group of people.

Posted March 7, 2010 · Report post Welcome to the forum Blumax! Glad to see you took the advice from surplusrifle forum guys and joined us. It would be helpful if you posted pictures or a link to some, so we could see your rifle. Detailed photos of the barrel near the chamber and the front half where the bayonet lug would be, to the front sight would be helpful. Photos of the receiver also. If it is a Winfield sporter, as mine is, it could be a Standard or a Deluxe. It could have an original barrel or a replacement barrel also. All these factors and more will determine cost of restoration. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
