  1. I loved knocking rounds through the batten that held the Figure 11 up on a 100m range and watching them fold and fall.

  2.  @plummz  not as such no... Bloke on the Range does a good video about this I am sure, but all the gunner needs to do is traverse the Bren to create a beaten zone of the required size, not too tricky. Where the GPMG comes along is that it has double the rate of fire of the Bren, and belt feed... especially in the SF role, this can be useful.

  3.  @tristanhodgden4286  you're right in that the moving working parts vs the weight of the overall weapon is minimal, it's in a nice straight line into the shoulder, and if held correctly, makes no actual difference when the trigger is pulled. Unlike the SMG, where I felt you had to allow for the working parts flying forward when you aimed.

  4. Sorry - I called it a Bren even when I was told it should be called the LMG, but then again I called the L1A1 a gat.

  5.  @edwalmsley1401  or when they stuck a round lead ball down the barrel instead of a kind of arrow. APFS was a thing in the thirteenth century I am led to believe.

  6.  @davewolfy2906  yup I was told it was because we were near the top of the Spetznaz hit list. I looked it up and it was actually Duran Duran. Weird innit>?
