I am looking, on behalf of a friend, for a LIVE (UK Section 1)  Boys Anti-Tank Rifle. If anyone is aware of one, please let me know and I will pass on details to my friend (who is not 100% computer literate). Cheers, Richard |

WOW. Don't know of one in UK, I know of one in US, is your friend located here? It'd be a devil to import I guess. I assume he's also got plenty of £££  Good luck with the search! Kind regards Matt GIbbs |

He's just sold a Bedford truck to finance it and he does have someone that can import it for him. He doesn't want one that has been chambered down to .5" Browning though!
If it is original .55" could you pass me the details?
Thanks,
Richard

Hi Richard
There have been a couple sold here in the last year or so at about NZ$7,000 each. I can remember back a few years when you could buy them in Aussie for about AU$300!!
Cheers
Rod

I should have mentioned that my dad used one in the Solomons in 1943 to shoot a 20' salt water crocodile. He said he fired the whole magazine at the 'big bit' and it swam away!

You could try the 50 cal Shooters Association, it may be a long shot (pun intended) however they might know of one for sale: www.fcsa.co.ukGood luck Vaughan |

It's still here....drop me a line on my regular email address and we can firm something up. I need the space. I just saw it under about two dozen Bren and Vickers coffins.
