looks like it sold yesterday for $2500. I would have been very very tempted had I seen this before it sold

Interesting story and Serial Number... ${$default_shocked_smiley}$

My guess it's a "Lunch Box Gun". Parts snuck out the back door and assembled at home.

I would not touch it with a 10' pole. Perhaps it is a working firearm and maybe not.

You can buy a very good Bren in the box for $4000, maybe less, why mess with this for $2500.

The pictures weren't very good but it looked like the raven logo was missing. Did later Brens not have that?

There are no markings of any kind on the slide or frame other than the poorly stamped serial number.

That one while having the classic lines of a BT just seems like it was a bastardized pistol from the start... ${$default_huh_smiley}$

Yikes...I didn't even notice that. $2500 is a lot of cash to take that kind of a chance.

Ok I admit, you guys saw numerous things that I did not ${$default_embarrassed_smiley}$
