Ground dug Bren parts

[RRPG]

Hi

I thought I would share with you just a few of the Bren parts myself and my group have recovered from a British army dump in the UK. The volume of 100 rnd magazine winding arms at the dump is amazing, yet we have not found one single 100 rnd mag! Not sure why yet, but it is possible we just haven't hit the right spot. Curiously though, we do find lots of the mechanisms from the top of the mags.

We find both the mk 1 and mk 2 winding arms and, if we're really lucky, the frame used to load and wind the mags, (only 4 of these have been found so far, and I was lucky enough to get one).

We have also found hundreds of Bren oil bottles, a couple of examples of which are shown in one of the pics. We find the brass ones and the 'plastic' ones.

Hope you find the relics interesting.
