Adopted in 1938 & remaining in British service until 1991 the popular & reliable Bren was an iconic light machine gun & arguably the most recognizable Commonwealth weapon of World War ll. Gas-operated & magazine-fed it was based on a Czech design & was issued in large numbers during & after World War ll as a section-level automatic weapon. Offering remarkable accuracy for an LMG the Bren had an effective range of 600 yards but could reach out to over 1 500 yards. It was generally fired from the prone position using a bipod but could be fired from the hip when necessary. If kept clean the Bren gave a reliable service in the harshest of environments from the deserts of Libya to the Korean mountains in winter.
