    Bren and other LMG's

    There is a pretty useful video out at the moment called THE BREN AND OTHER LIGHT MACHINE GUNS. 90+ minutes of mostly Bren shooting and information plus MG 34's, 42's GPMG's etc etc

    Available from tommyatkinsmedia.co.uk Available at buy it now on that site too

    Guns came from Warminster. It also includes a 1936 ZB gun captured during an ambush that went pear shaped in Afghanistan. The baddies lost the gun, the fire-fight and sadly, their lives too!

    Hope this isn't advertising.....................

    Go on, get the unmistakable roar of a Bren in your ears for 90 minutes..... Then do it again!

    A Collector's View - The SMLE Short Magazine Lee Enfield 1903-1989. It is 300 8.5x11 inch pages with 1,000+ photo’s, most in color, and each book is serial-numbered.  Covering the SMLE from 1903 to the end of production in India in 1989 it looks at how each model differs and manufacturer differences from a collecting point of view along with the major accessories that could be attached to the rifle. For the record this is not a moneymaker, I hope just to break even, eventually, at $80/book plus shipping.  In the USA shipping is $5.00 for media mail.  I will accept PayPal, Zelle, MO and good old checks (and cash if you want to stop by for a tour!).  CLICK BANNER to send me a PM for International pricing and shipping.

Several of our scopes are used in the CMP Vintage Sniper competition on top of 1903 rifles. Brian Dick ...

    Ah, yes...., it could be...., if you mean the handsome one!

    If you've seen the DVD Trooper, give the forumers your views/opinion. But only if it's good of course!

    If its good, maybe those of us across the pond ought to get a bulk rate pile and divvy it up over here... Maybe BDLicon would be a good choice (for the US crowd anyway)?
