Has anyone ordered some Bren barrels from IO? I see they have them for $50 or about $70 with hand select. Is it worth it for the extra $20 or should I just take my chances?

idk but i ordered a Mg34 barrel for $89 and the next day they droped it to $69 wich really pisses me off, i call them and they say my order shipped so they cant give me the lower price and yet it has not arrived yet.

I can't speak to IO's stuff, but if you want a "new" BREN...

barrel contact Don Bell at Omega Weapons Systems. Don has great stuff at reasonable prices. I highly recommend him. You will not be disappointed.

Check out his other stuff too. You never know what will pop up.

I ordered one of the Interordnance Mk1 Bren barrels the other day. I'll report when it arrives.

I put little faith in "handpicks" from the big vendors, so I ordered the $50 one.

I can remember getting two beautiful full Bren parts sets from IO about 8 years ago, but I'm sure they're near the bottom of the barrel (Ha ha) now.

Dan is right about Omega having nice barrels. I have two of those, both NOS. They're Mk2, though.

I got a MkI and MkII barrel from IO recently. The MKI was frosted and worn finish outside, but still very much useable. The MkII barrel was EXC with maybe storage wear. Like new bore. No hand pick on either.

I also got one of the Omega Bren MkII barrels. It was in the wrapper new. Pristine.

I've got a MKII kit that came with 2 MK1 barrels. Both are really nice but was going to pick up a couple mkII barrels.

Another vote for Omega on MkII barrels. Primo
