Boys .55

#1 Post by Stuck »

Looking for a live firing Boys Anti Tank Rifle.

Would appreciate a "heads up" if you know of one for sale.

Thanks,

Mick.

Join the FCSA and there is then access to ranges where they can be fired on a monthly basis. We have range access for calibres up to and including 20mm.

I remember Chris Smith of Smith Arms saying he had one (or one of his friends had one ) a while ago when I was chatting to him at one of the Bisley shows (always a good chat :good: )

Not sure if it would be for sale but worth tracking him down and asking the question? bangbang

My wife and I shot five rounds each with a .55 Boys back in the late 1980s, what an experience.

I hope he didn't talk Chris into getting it butchered (can't see that being stood for :o )

We were talking about a live one as I was trying to get him down to Lydd for a FCSA shoot bangbang
