How do we all use the bren gun? Shoot it in semi-auto or full-auto? Use it as a close range weapon or long range weapon?
To me, the bren gun is an excellent weapon. On semi-auto it fires just as accurate and deadly as a regular bolt action rifle, while shooting in a much faster speed. At close range it can shoot like a SMG on full auto without ironsighting, although it's much more difficult to hit your targets.
The only downside about the gun is that you have no pistol or grenades as backup, with the machinegun being your only weapon.
What does everybody else think about it? It also seems like the weapon is not used that often. Most people prefer the rifle and thompson over the bren gun.
