They "traded" with the Americans for .5o cals and mounted these on the carriers, maybe this is what he was referring to? Brian

Default Probably not that exciting,

I just had a moment to try question him about the weapons on the carrier, so anything's possible so far I guess, but PIAT was the only thing he mentioned, I think if they had M-2's on the carrier that would be the first thing he would have thought of, but you never know.
Maybe it had a Boyes AT rifle
Thanks Brian, and Ken.

That might not be the one I'm looking for, but thanks for putting that out there Geoff
Sort of a PIAT version of a Pepperbox, I wonder if one could hit a target with that?
