HARRINGTON & RICHARDSON H&R MODEL 60 REISING SEMI AUTO 45ACP RIFLE
Description: HARRINGTON & RICHARDSON H&R MODEL 60 REISING SEMI AUTO 45ACP RIFLE. SER# 205. MADE 1944-1946. SEMI AUTO VERSION OF THE MODEL 50 FULL AUTO MACHINE GUN.HARD TO FIND GUN WITH LIMITED PRODUCTION . GUNS IN VERY NICE CONDTION . ORIGINAL BLUE FINISH . NICE SOLID WOOD. COMES WITH TWO STICK MAGAZINES. The Model 60 was known to be issued by many law enforcement and government agencies, the US Navy, the Coast Guard and several large US prisons. The U.S. Marines issued them as training weapons, and several WWII veterans have reported that the Model 60 was issued to Marine officers in the Pacific Theater of operations. The Model 60 is very similar to the Model 50 submachine gun and shares virtually all the same parts except for the barrel. The Model 60 barrel is much longer at 18.25 inches, and with a few exemptions has no radial cooling fins. The front sight is adjustable for windage via a small hex-head screw. No compensators were fitted to the Model 60. The auto connector lever is absent from the M60 and the stud that supports it is partially cut away so that the lever cannot be fitted. The United States was embroiled in WWII when the Model 60 was introduced. The entire country was on edge fearing enemy acts of sabotage and spying. Many Model 60 Reisings were sold for arming factory guards. Many railroad bridges were protected from sabotage by placing an armed guard at each end. Many of these guards were armed with Model 60s that were purchased by the various U.S. railroads. During World War II the federal government controlled virtually all firearms sales within the United States. Firearms were only available to police or government agencies that were assigned priority codes for purchasing weapons. The priority codes were issued and controlled by the War Production Board (WPB). Few if any, new firearms or even ammunition was sold for civilian hunting or sport shooting during WWII. Most firearms were procured through a government-operated entity known as the Defense Supplies Corporation. On 6 February, 1942, the War Production Board authorized the Defense Supplies Corporation to order 500 Reising Model 50 submachine guns at a cost of $75.00 each, and 1700 Reising Model 60 semi-automatic rifles at a cost of $60.00 per weapon. These arms were purchased directly from the Harrington & Richardson Arms factory. The weapons were stored in DSC warehouses until they were resold to authorized stateside organizations.
