Boys Anti Tank rifles for the Carriers
Hi, I have been working on a project to get my two desert carriers kitted out with Boys Anti Tank rifles, After looking for these guns for the last five years it seems 3 have come my way at once, I have managed to pick up a alive fire which someone is holding on my behalf and a complete lower frame, the third is on loan from a guy.
I picked up this week three replica barrels I have had machined, next step is to have the breeches cast in resin patterned from an original, will keep you posted as the project progresses. I also have some left over Boys rifle parts if anyone is interested, (see last picture), on a first come first served basis.
