Yep, Bren was having a curved magazine so is this the original MG made by Brno?

This weapon is most likely a Namboo 100 (Spelling is probably wrong) machine gun, of Japanese origin.

I can not tell which variant with out seeing the weapon, early models start out having a chyrsanthemum on them, next models have a lily on them, and the final war production has no flower mark, just manufacturer data. Basically these weapons are good copies of the British BREN gun.

It is the .792mm version of Bren Mark I Light Machine Gun to be exact.
