Johnson LMG

The M1941 Johnson machine gun is an American-made light machine gun designed in 1940 by Melvin Johnson. It was developed from the rifle of the same name. It uses an in-line stock to decrease the weapons recoil, especially with the weapon's recoil operation. It used a 20-round magazine with .30-06 Springfield rounds. Though it was not mass-produced, the few that were issued to special divisions of the US Army Rangers. One notable unit that used the Johnson machine gun was the U.S. Army's First Special Service Force, a special operations unit composed of half Canadian, half American troops.
