L4: The Bren in 7.62mm NATO
This video from Forgotten Weapons delves into the L4 series Bren gun, specifically its transition to the 7.62mm NATO cartridge. The description highlights the process, noting that approximately 16,000 L4 Brens were produced before being largely supplanted by the FN MAG. It also details the four distinct patterns of the L4: L4A1, L4A2, L4A3, and L4A4, with the latter three featuring magazine supports and the A4 variant including chrome-lined barrels. The video implies a historical and technical examination of this significant update to a classic support weapon.
