Note
Measurements may vary slightly and you ‘may’ experience slight shrinkage on the first wash.
Description
This design pays tribute to one of the most famous rifle cartridges ever produced. Introduced in 1888, the .303 British served as the standard British military cartridge for more than half a century, seeing action from the Boer War through both World Wars. The humour comes from classic military understatement. Rather than referring to ammunition or combat directly, the phrase "English hospitality" is delivered with heavy irony, implying that, for anyone on the receiving end of a .303 round, Britain's welcome was decidedly unforgettable. It's the kind of dry, understated wit long associated with military humour.

Keñneth Clasper (verified owner) –
not the heaviest cotton tee shirt, but pretty good quality.
After reading a few reviews (after I had ordered) I thought that I had made a mistake, I was proved wrong and the tee shirts arrived fairly quickly and was pleased with what I recieved.
Ian H. (verified owner) –
Ordered a T-shirt online from Humorous History.
I was uncertain as to the quality of the shirt but I needn’t have worried as the item was of good quality with fast delivery and great communication.
I would recommend ordering from them you won’t be disappointed
David M. (verified owner) –
Your T shirt is good quality and worth the price.
Your courier, Evri, is absolutely useless. They stuffed the package down the back of a salt bin outside my home. At the stated time/date of delivery I was home. They made NO attempt to knock on my door. The T shirt was outside for three days. For this reason I will not buy anything further unless you stop using Evri.
