I think you would like to see this...

Hi folks,

I´ve been away for a while, mainly because of work duties ... but I´d like to show you my birthday gift that arrived a little bit delayed. But it is in such nice shape that I have to wait and wait until I could grab it...

But, now, here it is: a Browning Automatic Rifle M1918 (later modified to the M1918A2). It was originally made by Winchester back in 1918-19 and, after, updated to use during the WWII.It is chambered to the original .30-06 ammo and still alive! . It is complete with bipod and some field stripping and cleaning gear.

Hope you enjoy it (as much as I)!

Regards,

Douglas.

Hi Douglas, very nice! The photo with the BAR and the tunic has come out very well.

I like the BAR, in fact, I used to own one back in the 1980's. Mine too was an M1918A2.

Cheers, Ade.

PS. This post reminded me of a question I meant to ask on the forum. A friend of mine has a BAR but it is marked "Browning Machine Rifle". Does anyone have any info on why it is marked like that?
