Lovely stuff, they are all good looking rifles and I especially like the MAS, they are supposed to be very accurate as well. What do you think of it?

Are you a target shooter reader?
I did an article sometime last year on them.
Couldn't rate them highly enough, one of the best rifles in my collection to shoot.

I do like the SMLE's, there is just something about them.

I had an Inglis De-act Bren for a while, sadly it went many years ago.

The Bren/Inglis connection reminded me of something, time for a new thread 8-)

That really is an amazing collection - And I love all the 'bits and bobs' that you've got for the de-acts :good:

...got to ask though - what do you do with a de-act Bren gun...put it on the side board? (that could look good actually :-P )
