Hey just to let you know, you were definately right! I found a very faint arz code on the rear receiver! Why in the world someone would have welded up the markings I have no clue. kind of like when someone customizes a classic car. AGGGHHHHH! Now if i can just find some reproduciton stamps!

I Can't remember where I got the bren from. I want to say it was military gun supply. It was quite a project. All I have to do is test fire it and figure out what type of finish to put on it.

Yes, According to the receiver study, it is a long tripod mount. Behind the gripstick, it is the larger square hole which is probably 3/4" x 3/4". I don't know anything about the rear receiver, it was cut and all the markings are gone off of it. I'm just assuming it is a yugo. I'll get some pics up ...

Ok, That file helps alot. She's a bit of a frankenstein but i'm trying to do the best with what I have. Like I would ever sell it anyway! not. what I have is: the front shroud which is shown. type 1 UU. Unfortunately it was cut between the rear site and the trunion. as far as the rear receiver I hav...

I am new to the forum since I am now building an mg42! My question is on my mg42 shroud where it was cut, it looks like there are small (approx 1/8") holes drilled at the front of the shroud. Does anyone have a picture of one like this? Is it original? what is the purpose? I want to build it back as...
