@ Lawrence,

“I will continue to quibble about the sustained firepower of multiple linked belts vs. continual mag changes though….especially when firing suppression or final protective fires.”

I would have to ask if you’re still on the divide between the Bren as a WW2 LMG, or the divide between the Bren and a post war GPMG/WW2 MMG? Which of it’s contemporaries was that even an option for other than possibly the MG34/MG42 which generally used non-disintegrating link belts (not a simple matter to join belts), and already get an additional shot over their peers. Most other LMGs in the period are either magazine fed, lack a changeable barrel, or both. The Bren is actually at the mid to higher end of WW2 LMGs, nowhere near the bottom.
