Freeze and I were looking at an auction on a machine gun when the subject of BREN’s came up.
We saw this deactivated / display gun at a crazy low price. I suspect it was being ignored since it was competing with functioning weapons.
So at the minimum price, we figured what the hell? I’ll take it for that. So a bid was placed not believing we would actually win it.
A week later the auction house reaches out and, shockingly, gives us the news. We won it. For a fraction of its value!
Now the question: what the hell are we going to do with a non-functioning display gun in an armory full of working weapons?
I know. Not a “real” problem. I’m just stunned it’s even here.
