The Ferret Scout Cars weapon system is a defence system not offensive (get in get out without being seen).

All the deactivated weapons in the pictures below have been deactivated to currant UK / US / European legislation.

 

GPMG (Jimpie) 7.62mm Turret mounted weapon

 

 

Browning .303 Turret mounted weapon

Sterling SMG (Sub Machine Gun).

By all accounts the Ministry of Defence has not released any 'British' SMG's for deactivation (war reserve) and all the deactivated weapons currently in circulation come from other suppliers / countries. Whether this is true....
