Somewhere on one of the 5 or 6 sites I saw a link for rechambering Bren barrels and I can't seem to find it now. Any one?

you can rechamber the bbl, but it will leave a portion of the .303 chamber making the empties come out with 2 shoulders. not really a problem if you aren't going to reload.

I can do that for you. You have to modify the bolt face of the Bren for the 54R, but the bolt will still work for 303

Give me a shout at [Only registered and activated users can see links. ]

Welcome, Barrelxchange! I bought a .40 Uzi barrel from him a few years ago. Nice stuff!
