Yes, its still used. I fired it recently.
Despite rumours of it being replaced and RDF personnel using the GPMG instead, the Bren is still part of the PNCO's course so I presume it is still the official FSG weapon for RDF sections.
Bailer: thanks!

The bren. I hate it but we have to know it like the back of our hands for the PNCO`s course, although the gpmg is the weapon of choice for section in attack during exercises.Only the dead have seen the end of war - Plato
"Where there is no guidance the people fall, but in abundance of counselors there is victory" Proverbs 11-14

Is the Bren still in use? Yes
Back in my heady days as a fresh cpl just off my pots course ('96), myself and the other new cpl were sent to do the GPMG introduction course. What a thrill being the first GPMG instructors in our Bn.
I come back to the fold nearly 7 years later to find the Bren still going strong and the GPMG only a distant memory and the source of much scoffing in my new unit. Oh well thats progress I suppose.
As for a PA with a bren:D :D :DSigs - No amps, no volts = no interest
