Mk1 .55 Boys Anti Tank Rifle Parts and tools accessories

[Peter Laidler]

I have collected a VAST amount of info on these beastsand we have a couple at Warminster that we have fired in the past. Even my little boy (Robert, then aged 13 or so) has fired ours. They're ***** cats!

Once the Bren Gun book is published (by Small Arms Review and hopefully soon.....) I will collate this info and hopefully get it published. But don't expect a thick book, nor a pleasant one regarding the man Boys.......

All I can say is that if he designed cars, we'd still be walking............

I don't know whay it's starred out the word pu--y as in pu--y cats, but it has!

Hi Peter ...

The automated language "police" software seems to have taken a disliking to the embedded phrase ....

I'll have to to a phrase check to make sure it doesn't do it again ...

Perhaps you could ALSO check and see why it *** that 3 letter word that went between shirt *** jacket (Charlie Uniform Mike) when I was referring to one in the former Gwelo Museum in what used to be Rhodesia too then.

If one has the interest in challenges it can be a lot of fun beating the automated language police software.It all depends WHO has the better command of English;you or the dorky geek what done writ the programme.
Personally I detest the gratuitous use of profanity; but I don't need some mindless software trying to tell me what language to use either.

Cheers,

John

Wow, the Boys is an awesome rifle.
IIRC they are an obsolete calibre in the UK so can be owned without a license as long as you don't want to shoot it.

If anyone ever comes across one for sale, please please notify me as I would gladly buy it!
