bren mk1

[Martinf]

This is my first ever deactivated weapon so i had to share it with you lot.

I wasn't planning on getting a deac for a couple of years but the new legislation helped me persuade my fiancé.

Lovely and nicely dated too !.

Ok can you name the smallest part on the Bren that has the longest name definition

[Martinf]

I knew that was the case about the smallest part but didn't remember the name. I'd forget my own name if people didn't remind me lol. Just googled it

[Martinf]

yes @Ham & Jam I do like that its war dated.

the only thing with it is the barrel is a mk1*

but that doesn't bother me to much

[Davejb]

Its called the Barrel locking nut retaining plunger lug, had to learn that to pass weapons training in ACF, I dont know why but that has stuck with me since then lol

I don't understand, why is it too late? 

Agreed, very nice example. Maybe tomorrow if I get off my arse, I will take a few picks of mine. They are a thing of beauty for sure. My uncle Harvey was a Bren gunner with the Hastings and Prince Edward Regiment, during WWII.
