Thanks for posting this Shadow!  :)  I enjoyed going over that brochure.

Sure brings back memory's to me via pictures in my mind.  I had my order in through a dealer that was an hour away.  Super nice guy that sold everything for a fair price. He never tried to get rich off of every single deal.  He ended up dying at a relatively young age shortly after my order was in. Then I had to get all of my Perigrene information from normal media channels, i. e., gun rags.

Just remembered, thanks to you,  that I bought one of Bren Ten Special Forces Lights  from him! It was two grand!  :o  In 1991 Standard Brens were going for $800-1000 in my neck of the woods. I had never seen a SF before, and I might not ever again, so I overpaid dearly at the time.  Of course, now I am very glad that I made such a crazy decision back then.   :)

I posted this just to help preserve the history, I had got this from the web and saved onto it for the nostalgia.  The production of these guns also had a curse following them....that seemed to follow VLTOR's attempt as well.

The only Bren Ten SM in my area, was owned by a fellow near Baton Rouge, LA.  He popped on the local forum with it in a post and I complimented him on the gun and even mentioned about getting together possible to see it and if he ever sold it, I'd be interested.  I had introduced him to the Bren Ten Forum at the time.  Chatted with him about magnaflux, and he sort of disappeared for awhile.  Then almost 2 years later, I'm reading through the our local forum guns for sale section and he has it listed for sale.  I smoked my keyboard, typing to find out about a possible purchase, and actually made an acceptable deal.  He actually met me to complete the sale, which happened to be on Don Johnson's birthday.
