#157 Johnston-Tucker M1 Carbine, caliber .22 LR + shipping

Johnston-Tucker was the first U.S. company to make a carbine in .22LR. Unlike the others they used surplus GI parts
as they were still available at decent prices in the 60's. The receiver was made from aluminum. The hammer design was
altered to work with the rimfire cartridge. The bolt and slide were designed as integral. With use over time the impacts
of the slide against the receiver tended to snap the front of the slide off. This one is still intact.

The original magazine was a GI 15 round magazine with a .22 magazine insert. Few still survive and an original one is included
with this one. The damage to the finish you see on this receiver is due to the type of finish they used on the aluminum.

     Price: $SOLD
