Subject: (00/Feb/04) Bren Newsletter...new member on board!

From: Jon Fox

Mike:

Just spent the last couple hours reading all the back issues of your "newsletter." What a treat! Please add me to the list. I, too, have experienced feed and jamming problems with range ammo but no problems at all when dipping into my store of Norma. Now you've got me worried. Will be looking to pick up some Remington UMC and Federal 180 grain HydroShok, plus some Militec, but no Winchester Silver Tip (see, I told you I read all the old communiques) Can you tell us how many Bren owners are signed up with you. Let's have a convention. By the way, Don Johnson is opening up a restaurant in San Francisco next week.


Hi Jon,

You are the 18th member of the Bren Association. Our membership includes Triton Cartridge Corporation as well as ESF Sales, which is an excellent source for Bren and other collector handguns. Sounds like you've been following those back letters pretty closely :) The best ammo choice is still under testing but we want to try and lean more towards loads that aren't abusive to a VERY valuable/expensive weapon, yet give reliable function.

Hmmmm....wonder if ol' Don is putting up any pics of himself with a Bren in his hands? ;)
