A fair price for one directly out of storage would be $1,000. to $1,500 apiece. I buy one right now! They DID buy 50,000 of them during WW-2, and most of them were recalled because they decided to go with the M-1 Garand. Okay,.. Soooo... where did the all the 1941 Johnson's go? Kennedy is rumored to have armed some of the Bay of Pigs troops with them, but that wasn't that many troops. Cuba probably still has a bunch. Commies never trough anything away. Remember all the lugars & Broom handle Mauser's that showed up when the wall fell? Same thing here. Fidel still as them stored away and would sell them to us if he could. As far as our government, Someplace, in some deep dark, weapons depot warehouse, we have GOT to have the rest of them stored away. AND I WANT ONE!!!!

It seemed a bit risky, but they always went bang. As an artilleryman it was quite common during live fire exercises to use primers, powder, or even shells in some instances made in the 50’s.
