.55", Boys Anti-Tank rifle. Mark 1, Mark 1*, Mark 2 (U.K. and Canada)

The Accessories and spare parts

There were many accessories made for the Boys rifles, from cleaning components to tools, gauges and canvas covers. Most are becoming highly collectable and prices are spiraling out of control.

Many more pictures to follow.....

Below: MK1 Muzzle break canvas cover

Below: Canvas rifle cover... ok we cant find one to take a picture of, but beware, some eBay sellers are selling machine gun covers as 'Boys anti-tank rifle covers', there unfortunately do not fit the Boys and were never intended for the Boys, we even bough tone to try and there is no way the rifle could be squeezed into the cover due to the rear hand-grip and pistol grip assembly.
