Nice pic's and figures...the Bren looks accurate though I cannot recall ever seeing a silver barrel on one...cheers TomB

Thanks Tom - had to do a little research on the Bren. I found a few pictures with silver barrel.

Probably a gun that never has been fired . Love the second picture, very realistic with the driver leaning out of the ambulance

Thanks for going to the trouble to research...I do not know what the silver barrel is for.....never ever seen one...they would stick out like a neon light in the jungle.....from memory the average Bren was 21 lbs...dont remember if that was with a loaded mag....the Brit jungle version was 19 lbs......it was lightened somewhere, maybe in the bipod and stock....the Bren was replaced with the M60 but I do know some were re chambered to take the 7.62 Nato round in the 70"s...good wpn.....Cheers TomB
