Johnson Forum

[Cecil]

Will we get a new Johnson Forum to replace the old one?

[Matt K.]

I know we had the least traffic of any forum, but we should get points for "coolness."

[Cecil]

We should get off the scale cool points. I really like the 41 Johnson.

[jeff hamerstone]

I wish I had one to talk about

[joem]

I think the reason for the least used forum is the fact that there are very few M1941 Johnsons around. I have heard estimates that there may be as few as 3000 or so rifles left.

wow,

glad I got one when I could afford it!

it was a holy grail rifle for me, took a few years, but finally found a good rifle at a decent price,

now I'm scared to shoot it!!! :yikes:

(well, not really)

[Cecil]

I just put 200 rounds through mine. My philosophy is if I haven't shot it in a year, it's sold for something I will shoot. No wall hangers or safe queens.

[joem]

I looked for one for over five years, maybe closer to ten. I finally found one in pristine condition with an original bayonet and a sales brochure. I keep saying I'm going to shoot it, but too many other rifle and pistol projects take up my time.

[Cecil]

Can you submit a picture?

[jeff hamerstone]

JoeM How much did you have to pay for a rifle like that

[Tom in N.J.]

I've had three Johnson M1941s over the years, the most expensive, from Sarco, being US$99.98 plus 3% tax. Navy Arms used to sell the bayonet and scabbards for US$2.50. That WAS a few years ago.......

[BarryinIN]

I'm hoping we get a Johnson forum here.
I just got mine!

[joem]

$4500.00 for the whole rig. Wish I could have paid less but I guess if you want one in excellent condition that's the price. I will try to post picture later.

Your in the Johnson Forum.

[BarryinIN]

Nuts!
But..but..but..It didn't exist recently when I looked! I ran a search and found this same thread I saw before and posted in it.
Nice stupid post for the new guy to enter with, huh?

[gary]

I purchased one a few years ago for $600.00 along with a lot of extra parts
haven't shot it yet they are a nice looking rifle.

What type parts did you get? Anything numbered?

[gerryg]

I have -4- Johnsons. 3 were sporterized. One I purchased the receiver only from Sarco in the early 80's and put it together with a parts kit from Armex.

[jeff hamerstone]

Anybody want to sell one I'm interested

[maxhardy]

Yeah, I'd wonder why anyone would do it once, let alone twice unless they just get a kick out of the attention.
There. I just gave you ten seconds' worth.
