This is the rarest WWII American rifle, I have only ever heard of one other deactivated old specification example.
This is an excellent condition example of a seriously rare rifle cocks and dry fires. 10 round cylindrical magazine and leather sling with brass fittings.
Col. Melvin M. Johnson, Jr., a captain in the Marine Reserve, was a gifted inventor whose company produced the Johnson Semiautomatic rifle. The Johnson rifle was supplied in limited quantities during World War II, and used by US Special Forces, including the joint Canadian-American First Special Service Force (FSSF), and by the USMC, in the Raiders and paratroopers.
You may never see another example again especially in this condition
