Looks like the grandfather of a FN FS2000. Interesting rifle!
Short recoil operation - the barrel sets back a bit in the "shoulder thing that goes up."
Ten shot rotary magazine, loaded from the side with two Springfield stripper clips.
Alleged to be temperamental and lost out to the M1 Garand. The Marines acquired and used a handful in WW2 though from a shipment that was ordered by the Dutch before the Netherlands fell. Numrich used to have a lot of parts from buying out Johnson's stock when they folded. Only ever seen one in the wild and had an ask like $5K. If I'd had the money though...

You can call me Ray, or you can call me Jay......
I once went to a training class where the presenters name was Hugh Johnson. We had some Marines there so up front he said his name was Hugh Johnson, not Huge Johnson. I guess he already knew the routine.
Mark Novak is good people. Here he is with my Mateba MTR-6, one of two in the country.https://youtu.be/qTwfMGqCkZ8?si=Z8GlAe0n0FTSHde_
