External links modified edit
Hello fellow Wikipedians,
I have just added archive links to 2 external links on Browning BAR. Please take a moment to review my edit. If necessary, add {{cbignore}} after the link to keep me from modifying it. Alternatively, you can add {{nobots|deny=InternetArchiveBot}} to keep me off the page altogether. I made the following changes:
- Added archive https://web.archive.org/20060728081749/http://www.gunsmagazine.com:80/F10.html to http://www.gunsmagazine.com/F10.html
- Added archive https://web.archive.org/20080216081703/http://www.gunsandammomag.com:80/long_guns/deer100404/ to http://www.gunsandammomag.com/long_guns/deer100404/
When you have finished reviewing my changes, please set the checked parameter below to true to let others know.

Why "BAR"? edit
I'm assuming it's an abbreviation for "Browning Automatic Rifle", but is that correct? TJRC (talk) 17:54, 25 April 2021 (UTC)
- In this [1] promotional video by Browning, they refer to it as an 'autoloading' (i.e. semi automatic) rifle, which makes more sense, as it is a semi-automatic. But it does stand for Browning Automatic Rifle on the M1918 BAR. Loafiewa (talk) 18:35, 25 April 2021 (UTC)
