Although the French did not produce their own anti-tank rifle, during the Battle for France, the French acquired the British Boys bolt-action anti-tank rifle. Czechoslovak soldier, Vaclav Jezek managed to find a rifle of a dead French soldier, and was able to put it to good use, taking out Panzer I's, II's, and armoured cars. He later used it as a sniper rifle hitting targets as far out as between one and half to two km away.
