Saw these on GB and all I can say is Wow! Right or wrong they are still Johnsons.

Buffed badly! Who ever did the bluing job really went overboard on the buffing -- look at the rounding at the rear of the receiver. I'm old enough to remember that "sporterizing" military arms was "THE" thing to do back in the '60s, most people not believing they would ever have any value except for hunting. Look at the prices for World War II firearms now and pick up an old gun magazine from the '60s and eat your heart out. My first rifle was a Lee-Enfield "Jungle Carbine" in like new condition for $29.95 from "Ye Old Hunter" (Hunter's Lodge) in Alexandria, VA. Shipped without any problem or license. Johnson rifles were $59.95 from the same source. Johnson bayonets were $1.
