SKN, Instructional Sectioned, Bren Mk IM .303 Calibre Light Machine Gun. Cocks and Dry Fires D 6051 - D 6051 The British Bren Light Machine Gun was introduced in the 1930's and used extensively by British & Allied Forces throughout WW2. Bren Guns were produced predominantly in Britain, Australia & Canada. This is a scarce Bren gun produced by MOD armourers at SKN to produce an instructional action. These actions were manufactured between 1948 & 1950 utilising components from out of service Bren guns. Quite a number of skeleton actions were assembled by the Gun trade and by REME workshops, but these lack the official SKN number on the breech of the action body. The contract was originally given to ROF Enfield, but following legal action involving the alleged un-licensed Government manufacture of the L2 Sterling SMG, manufacture was given instead to Sterling Engineering as part of the legal settlement. Sterling then sub-contracted the work to List Engineering of Dagenham, which completed SKN's returned to ROF Enfield for inspection and service acceptance. This example is stamped with the correct SKN designation. The term SKN or Sectionalised refers to Bren guns that were cut away to show their internal mechanisms. These were produced by MOD armourers as training aids (or for display, sometimes referred to as Boardroom models) to demonstrate to recruits how the gun operated and was maintained. This is an excellent WW2.303 Calibre MK I Bren light machine gun. The Bren Mk.1M was the Canadian made version, with simplified non-telescoping bipod legs simplified butt without shoulder rest and butt plate buffer. The Bren parts were extensively cut away to show the working parts including the breech, action, recoil and gas operations. The frame is stamped with the correct SKN designation on the right side BREN MK 1M indicating a Canadian manufacture and SKN 3782 on the top of the breech behind the magazine. Bren gun is fitted with the folding cocking lever and has the drum elevation rear sight. The Bren gun is complete with its folding bi pod, adjustable rear sight & original sectioned box magazine containing dummy rounds. The gun has excellent wood work and the metal retains much of its original blued finish. SKN made 'guns' were never issued as functioning firearms and do not require a deactivation certificate within the UK. Nevertheless it has been examined and D.A. stamped at the Birmingham Proof House. All the parts move to show how it functions and it cocks / dry fires. This is a rare example. The price includes UK delivery. D 6051 £2,250.00 |
