BSA - "THE OTHER BATTLE"

THE BIRMINGHAM SMALL ARMS COMPANY's

Own company history published post WWII

We are able to offer here, by kind permission of the presenters of the archives of the

Historical Breech-loading Small-arms Association,

a searchable flip-page facsimile of the entire BSA Second World War history book

"BSA - The Other Battle"

This is a large file which may take a while to load.

 

Copies of the book were given to company employees who had significantly contributed to the firm's war effort.

The presentation was accompanied by a card recording the name of the contributing employee.

This particular book was presented to one W.S. Wilson at the Small Heath Works in July of 1947.

During times pre-WW1 when the "new" British Service Rifle was produced,

a fine bronze casting of the Lee-Enfield Short Rifle ( S.M.L.E.) was commissioned,

and presented to selected involved staff members.
