    Currently wearing a "7.92" marked barrel. The receiver is also marked 7.92 just behind the barrel nut.

    It's a 1945 dated Inglis.

    The mag well has a new feed plate riveted in.

    Well it started life as one of the post war 7.92 guns so I'd hazard a guess at it being a trial gun for some other calibre like .280

    Actually it didn't start as an 8mm gun, because that would be a "7.92mm BREN MkI" not a "BREN MkII", and if post-war, it would also not be "Inglis" marked...
