Hope she hasn't gotten rid of the Bren. It can be modified to digest 7.62mm - which gives you a common caliber with the GPMG - and would make a fine first MG for Boy. Birthday present?

On a more general note, why didn't Mrs FM skip a generation and upgrade straight to the Minimi? Mr FM has alluded to her membership of the arme blanche in the past so surely the lighter weight and greater ease of handling would be an advantage.

Rather I practiced with the Sten, mummy."
