After several years of spending money on other items of Militaria when I should really have been buying a Bren, I've finally decided to get one. Especially as, I understand, the new EU deactivation regulations which come into force on 08 April 2016 mean that these, and other fine weapons, will be welded such that they become solid lumps of iron!
The thing is though, the more I read the more confused I become. I do know, however, that I want a King's Crown Mk.I that is as correct as it can be.
Any help, guidance or comment on these possibles would be greatly appreciated!
Regards
Martin
