This is a superb museum quality box of 4 Bren drum mags in perfect condition. They come complete with their box, winder, tool, mounting brackets and original instructions. it has been valued at £5k but I will accept £4.5k.
Thanks James IMG_1607.JPG IMG_1616.JPG IMG_1615.JPG IMG_1614.JPG IMG_1617.JPG

The drum completely blocks the sights. What sight was used with these?

"Fire for effect", Bruce.... When you've got enough lead in the air..............
![]() Good question. The drum mag would have been made for the anti aircraft role and at least in the twin mount arrangement, they had a special anti aircraft sight. I too await the answer.

We called that spray and pray. Early Mk.1 Brens had a dovetail groove on the left side of the receiver that took a telescopic sight and maybe an AA 'spiderweb'. Later Brens must have had a clamp on something. Just another bobble to find, install and adjust as the Stuka was bearing down on you.

Peter Laidler wrote about a guy who ran out of cover to take on a German low flying aircraft with a Bren gun on the mk1 tripod with AA leg. The rest of the guys ran under a tree for cover. The guy was the bravest dead man they ever knew. A 303 is no match for a 20mm cannon.

Here's a Mk.1 Bren on a Humber Mk.II. No sight to be seen and the trooper's aiming eye seems to be looking over the top of the drum. Maybe every second round was a tracer? |
