Gun picture thread

3 weeks in development and i have a working prototype / proof of concept Bren gun hicap​

Yes its rough around the edges but the point is to see if I could jam the internals of a thompson hicap into the end of a genuine Bren magazine, rotate the feed 180º and have it feed successfully and i can happily say the concept works.

Because the wheel is on the bottom after the hicap has fully un-wound itself it must be removed and wound back up, this is after every 400 round approximately. The hicap holds about 1000 rounds.

Yes the realism with a 1000rd bren gun is bad but at least on an open day against hire guns running around with 500rd m4s it can remain competitive.

Speaking of Viva Arms Brens, they shared this with me yesterday. After really, REALLY insisting it should be made of CNC aluminium, they have obliged.

I can't say for certain that after this fix they will have zero issues, purely because I haven't used it yet, for obvious reasons.

But, I'm quietly optimistic, there are many nice things about these that have been immediately overshadowed due to this issue.
