Bren Mk I magazine

Attachment 62401Attachment 62402Attachment 62403

Bought some Bren magazines yesterday and I think one is a Mk 1? Right and top in the pictures.

Why does it have a different curvature?

The curvature is different because it ain't for a .303" Bren Vince!"

So I need an L4 to use it?

It's not an L4 either. I don't knoiw what it's from, but it aint a Bren Maybe some closer/close-up photos might alert the 'other Bren' fiends

Ya got there a ZB39 mag. If'n ya don't want it , I'll trade or buy it from you. I need more.

Oh yeah, it's for 8x56Rmm.

Thanks Tom,

Remember the Bren gas cylinders I sent you. Could you send them back please. Thanks

World Wide Arms in the UK sells these. In batches of five. They all have 'WaffenAmpt' Inspection stamps on them also. The peculiar thing is, I am informed that they never had these marking when they arrived at their Premises................:dunno:

There's a "dealer" not far from here who has a set of those die stamps. We watched him using them one Sunday morning before the show opened. He was open to us about what he was doing and making fun of the people who fall for it.

I haven't cleaned the cosmoline off this one yet. Haven't seen any markings yet.

Looks like it will take 10 or 11 rounds of 7.62x54R before the tip of the top round gets too low to clear the front of the magazine.

If I was using one for 762x54 |I would have an articulated platform to cater for that..........

Vince,
I sent you several PM's on that topic!!! You never answered??? Made multiple offers to you?? Did you get them through the board system???? If not, try using my personal email addy.
