Right from its inception as a hand-built, open top, closed-bolt-firing model, John M. Browning’s “Automatic Machine Rifle” was an instant success. It remained one of the most popular and respected weapons in the U.S. arsenal for over four decades, proving time and again that, when the fighting got heavy, the BAR was truly a ‘Rock in a Hard Place’.
