it sad to see these beautiful firearm striped from their pride due to those petty laws that our unconstitutional traitors made in congress.

I will never understand how the Italians spent enough to convert their Fiat/Revelli 35s to belt feed but produced the brand new Breda 37s with 20 shot feed trays instead of a belt! This makes it the equal to a overweight tripod mounted BAR! Stranger yet, they went to the trouble of designing the gun so that it put the empty cases back into the tray! Makes sense in a tank gun but not in an infantry weapon! I think of it as the Anal Retentive gunner's choice.The ALFA was the smart version of it.

The 8 x 56 cartridge was near in power to the Winchester 300 Magnum.

excellent work on this historical MG... all you need now is a '42 Willys to go with it!

The British SAS and LRDG used Bredas [instead of Bren guns] any time they could get hold of them in N Africa. Why we hear about so many Italians surrendering here in the English speaking world is... while some Italians were surrendering in N Africa, twice as many Brits were surrendering to Japan in Singapore, etc

@lotrbeast And yet our partisans kicked kraut asses with bredas... Than took MG42s from dead krauts. :) Moral of the story: even the best weapon aint worth crap in hands of a crappy warrior! ;)

" The last survivors of Folgore have been gathered without forces in the desert, no one of them surrended, no one left his weapon. We really must bow in front of the rest of those who have been the 'LIONS' of the Folgore Division"
