2 Nov 2024 Garand and Johnson MG pic of the Day

Looks like 2 Johnsons, a LMG and a rifle.

Correct. I had the rifle for some time. Never wanted the LMG and just needed the rifle for collection. When I had both M1 and Johnston, it was easy to see why the Johnston was of less regard. I gave a demonstration of both to my Reconnaissance platoon once and they chose the M1 hands down. One young man said of the Johnston..."Too many parts and too complicated".
