Just got my latest RIA catalogue today, and on page 13 they show in good color foto detail a Johnson. Be interesting to see what it "hammers down" at for bid price. I have a M-1 D Korean USMC issue sniper rifle, just as shown above the Johnson rifle-Very accurate, but due to top enbloc clip ejection feature, a scope mount on any Garand is always a "Rube Goldberg" contraption. My NM 1903-A3 Springfield (Remington) is way more accurate out to max. visibility sight range with peep sight- for me- about 500 yards- The Garand with 10X scope, maybe to 750 yards- I also looked at the Rock-Ola (juke box Co.?) presentation M-1 carbie- reminds me of Donald Sutherland's quip to The 101 st. A/B Col- Everett Dasher Breed in "The Dirty Dozen"-- very pretty, Col., but can they fight?-- I'd rather have a riot M12 with 00 buck than a M-1 carbine= anything in range you hit with that is gonna die--
