I have to disagree with the statement that the VB was replaced by Bren guns. This may have happened with Indian troops serving in N.Africa and Italy, but Indian troops that served in the CBI and SEA retained their VBs as standard LMGs. After 1947, there is no record of the newly independent Pakistani and Indian armies having Bren guns, rather they had the VB, which Pakistan initially replaced with the MG42/59s, while the Indians converted theirs to 7.62mm NATO, until replaced with Soviet PKMs from the late 1970s. â Preceding
