Clicking when front brakes applied

Clicking when front brakes applied
I feel it more than hear it. Whenever I press the front brakes going a decent speed I feel clicks in my palm holding the grip. Definitely doesnt feel normal.
Just picked up the bike and felt like that when I bought it. Just wondering if this is a common issues with worn brakes on bikes or what?
Thanks.

Is it a consistent clicking that happens every time you brake?
Does it change with speed? Does the clicking slow down as the bike slows down? That would suggest a disc problem, possibly a warped disc pushing on the brake pads.
Since it's your brakes I would try and sort it out so it doesn't lead to something worse like a wheel lock up.
