    Late Date Bren Barrel Holdalls

    I have a couple of late UKicon production Bren spare barrel holdalls, in my collection, with dates of 1984 and also, I believe, 1989. I guess, theoretically, UK examples of the holdall could be in existence with dates into the early 1990's and I wonder if anyone has such an example? Does anyone have a UK holdall dated later than 1989, please? One would think that perhaps the holdall may have been manufactured in the UK until pretty much when the Bren went out of UK service but on the other hand there were probably many new holdalls already in storage in the UK?

    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.
