I don't know where you can get them but a number of companies do reprints on all the WWII and later stuff. The manuals you will be looking for are FM 23-15 BAR Cal. 30, M1918A2 and TM 9-1211 BAR all types. There may have been many revisions but the FM I am looking here at is dated May 1961 and the TM was from March 1942.

I'll be glad to print these out and mail them to you for $20 each or send you a CD $10 for both in the continental US. I'll e-mail them anywhere for $3.

....the "BEST" one available....

Anyone know a good place to find a 1918 BAR tech/field manual?
The most extensive and complete manual....includeing original drawings and depo maintance level fixes....is the "Browning Machine Gun Shop Manual" by Frank Iannamico, Moose Lake Pub.,2002 (latest version). It covers the 1917A1,1919A4/6,1918 BAR and the .50 M2. There are also several variants of each also in there......
