Bandoliers And Boers

 


Filthie family lore has it that my great grandfather fought these
guys.

But he pulled a fast one - he enlisted in the British army twice and jewed 
the Crown of several bobs, farthings and quids.
He got busted and spent a few days in the Tower Of London awaiting
his day in court.

  3. I wonder if there won’t be similar pics coming out soon… with serious, determined men posing with their AR’s and AK’s as they go to war against an abusive empire that needs to die…

    1. Oh yeah, but maybe with a surplus Mauser, Enfield, Garand, Mosin, Ariska or a what-have-you.
