I noticed these deactivated MK3 Brens for sale by WWA at what seems like a reasonable price. According to the advert they are in "new" condition. I wondered what members thoughts are on these, good or bad? DA372 British Enfield .303 BREN MkIII Light Machine Guns
Complete dog doo.
Looks like the lightweight barrel on that one, don't see those around here much.
There seemed to be a significant number of deactivated MK3's appear of the UK deactivated market a few years ago which helped to bring the price down. Some are claimed to be ex Irish army examples but there does seem to have been rather a lot of such described MK3's appear in recent years.
Serial numbers UE55A2731 to UE57A4773 and a batch from 1954 are known Irish guns so there's at least 2,000 of them. There are also reports on Irish Army forums of guys being issued these new in wrappers as late as the mid 1990s.
Would you think that the WWA examples are ex Irish army then, B.P.?
