Educational Zone #70 - Great Firearms - The Johnson Rifle - Page 3
This lowers a lock mechanism.
You then pull upwards on the bolt handle.
And the barrel can then be pulled forward off the rifle.
This was an advantage for parachutists that needed a shorter rifle for jumping.
It also allows very easy field cleaning of the barrel, a real concern in the days of corrosive ammo.
Pushing is a couple more pins allows the butt stock to be removed from the action.
You can then see the internal buffer tube, much like an AR15, located in the butt stock.
