Probably circa £300-400 at present, although there are a number of variables that effect the price. Do you have any pictures?

Not on me as am at work! But will upload some pics when i get home in a couple of hours! Thanks for the swift response I am no expert but i believe everything to be original so no rewelds/hybrid stuff going on!

Hi Chris,
I have the following 'Inglis', 1943 MK II . The only serial number i can find is on the barrel nut, A1005. There are a few smaller marks here and there, let me know if you want any photos.

Hi,
First off, I'm a Texas Plumber

I have a MK1 parts kit with a cut up receiver so I cannot be certain if all the receiver parts are from the same weapon.

Hi mine is P908 - I think dates to late 1941 -December. All matching numbers apart from a lithgow barrel dated feb 1943 serial number 7712

So I guess it saw service with Australian troops at some point?

Cheers

I have a Inglis Bren MKII converted to 7.62mm and remarked as an L4a4 dated 1958 with a serial number of 14T583.

Might be Fake marking then! L4A4's were made from MKIII Bren's. L4A3' were made from MKII's!.....................

Hi, new to the forum - just picked up a Bren serial no E208 which is a Mk1 1940. Hoping you may be able to help with any history or information - don't know if you already have this listed. Thanks Martin
