Come on nathan james, you need to go talk to CZ themselves with those kind of questions, and you know that.

If indeed u do live somewhere where select fire guns are easily attainable you already know where to go to ask questions.

Did you do the mud test like InRangeTv where you shovel tons of soupy mud or like Mac and press it into mud?

Like inrangetv. Shoveled it on both sides whole gun including trigger. The mk18 had an advantage with the ejection port cover closed. More sealed up. I will keep door open next time and do side by side testing again. I havent given up on the bren 2 beating the ar15

I got mine today and it is a 2S.  I went ahead and ordered 2 more when I got home from the FFL. Who knows if they will sell a 5.56 2S again, so I’ll have one to convert later.

I would way rather have a 2s. There is a thread on the CZ forum where a guy was complaining that he got a 2S and he wanted the MS so he was trying to send it back. WTF? They ended up taking it back before I could offer to buy it from him

One in chamber with safety on. I think the biggest problem with the bren was I shot 30 rounds of laquer coated wolf just previous to testing. However it worked just fine with the sand test I did just previous to the mud. Anyone else running their Brens hard to test reliability and to find its limits? High round counts with no lube and no cleaning, etc?

These mud tests that InRangeTv does are brutal. The ar15 is the only gun that works through their tests. The ak47, HK 416, Glock 19 and so on failed. I know my scar 16's failed miserably when I did that mud test to it. I think the only useful information you can gain from these tests is in seeing if your weapon is out of the fight without taking apart and cleaning or can you geti back quicly to functioning. My scar 16 locked up so hard I had to get water hose out and drench it while using a ruber hammer to hammer on the charging handle. Was definitely out of the fight.

S model barrels are compatable with the ms. Only need to keep the s rails with the s and the ms rails and handguard with the ms.

SCAR 17 and HK G36 also ran flawlessly in the InRange mud test.  The SCAR had one failure but Karl mentioned afterwards it was a bad round and not the fault of the gun.

Thank you for the info -- maybe someday CZ will sell barrel kits for the 2S like they did for the 805 for a while.  Then again, maybe they will sell another batch of 5.56 2S pistols.  Until then, I'll just enjoy the 7.62, and put the two spares away for safe keeping.

MS is the commercial variant that has the modular HG.  S is the issue version with the 1-piece upper.

Interestingly, the Bren 2 BR appears to only be made in the modular HG config, so no difference between commercial & issue versions there.

Hi,

Long time arfcomer but first time on this thread.  I'm the happy new owner today of a Bren 2 (14" 5.56mm ms pistol).  I have a few questions and apologize if they have been asked and answered - I've not yet had time to review all 50 pages.  I have a question about the Bren 2 5.56mm CZ 922r parts set that I see from the thread here.  I know that CZ is out, I added myself to the notification.  Are these things brand new and rarer than hens teeth, or been on the market awhile and still rarer than hens teeth?  Does CZ make and market them in batches?  Is there any other place to get them and get on a list for one other than CZ?

My long term plan is to get that and convert my pistol to a carbine with the 922r kit and pin/welding a 2" hider or brake.  Which is the best brake/hider for this purpose on the gum?

Does anyone have a photo of the HBI 7.9" Bren 2 handguard on the 14" 5.56mm pistol?  I'm wondering if it inhibits use of the bayonet lug any?

Ok - last question (for now).  Is the bayonet unobtanium?  If not is there a best/recommended source for one?

Thanks!
Earl

You would have to ask the CZ reps in the country in which you live for the correct answer. If you live in a lawless zone like Somalia, then anything goes, but likely CZ-UB won't ship to a lawless zone. Creating a second account on AR15.com is strictly forbidden by the owners and I will not draw their ire - I like it here. As for converting the BREN 2 MS - that question will not be answered here for various legal reasons up to and including that we ARE subject to US law and do not wish to enjoy the dubious hospitality of Club Fed for any length of time. I hope that is clear.

If it were possible to convert the factory trigger pack to FA, then it would not have been cleared for private commercial sales by ATF.

It's not possible unless you can add material to the receiver and bolt carrier. The right side lip is cut down on the semi guns. On select fire guns that lip
continues and contains the pin for the auto-sear. Also, there is a little "tooth" on the bolt which actuates the auto sear, which does not exist on the semi bolt carriers.
You would need a new receiver, FCG parts and bolt carrier.

I have done these test on the Bren 2 and ar15 as well and had the complete opposite happen. Bren 2 worked perfect through sand and mud and ar15 died and had to tap case out with cleaning rod. If mud gets in the right place on any gun it is going to die. The more valid test would be to test with dirt or sand. Not likely that your gun is going to get drenched in mud like that but more likely to have wind blowing sand and dirt around and into your gun. My understanding is that military has issues with sand mostly with the ar platform. I think Bren 2 does very well with sandy conditions. Do nt put too much thought into mud test. :)

Shouldn't have mattered too much if the action was closed.

Slots are slots, and slots let stuff in.  It's kinda unavoidable.

But the trade-off is a much nicer gun in every way that doesn't go "spring" with every shot, or sound like a zipper when cocked.  Just know that when you dunk it in mud at the day spa, you probably need to at least piss on it to ensure it will run.

I wonder if there's a market for giant oversized condoms to fit over entire guns?  Kind of the only way to truly beat mud.  Notice they never do a mud test by shoveling shit into the barrel, despite that being at least as likely as the ejection port in real world mud bath.  Why?  Because everyone already knows.what it will do.  Well the same goes for guns with uncovered openings.

My scar 16 locked up so hard I had to get water hose out and drench it while using a ruber hammer to hammer on the charging handle. Was definitely out of the fight.

The Mas49/56 and IIRC FS2000 also did well.  Guns with few openings.  All they're doing is testing how sealed up the gun is.  Something that is immediately apparent by simple inspection, and often not the be all end all in actual practice (e.g. FS2000)

It was useful for dispelling myths about the AK and Garand, but that's where the utility ended.  They are entertaining like melt-down 'tests' though.

Well since this is a technical forum, I'll just address the technical questions posed.

The answer is no, a bren 2 ms receiver will not accept a full auto carrier group without machining. The "lower"/trigger pack included with the semi-auto guns also lacks the necessary features for accepting FA trigger components.

If an entity were desiring an MS configured select fire gun, the only real options would be remanufacturing a SA gun (which I would rather not get into exact details on), or to contact CZ mil/leo sales if a sizable enough order were desired that would justify making a model to the customer's spec.

So does the 14" barrel have a more military correct (thinner) profile than the 16" carbine version?

And it appears that the 14" barrel has a bayonet lug? Would that prevent it from installing a longer handguard?

Yes its the thinner barrel and bayonet lug wont be an issue for installtion of longer handguard.

What would you guys recommend for a suppressor for an 8" and 11" in 7.62x39?  One of the Dead Air's?  An OSS?  Something else?  I already have several silco cans, but my 30 cal is an old specwar that is big, heavy and seems more suited to a full length rifle...

I have the Bren 2S 14” 7.62x39 pistol version from the first batch sold by Prepper Gun Shop. I’d like to mount my Sandman S and try some suppressed shooting. What size hole do I need to drill in the regulator?

ETA  WOW Last time I posted in this thread was page 2.

I used a Dead Air Nomad, Wolfman and Wolverine on mine. Sticking with the Nomad. Works great, but I did drill a suppressor port for mine.

Was in there on Wednesday I believe it was and saw it...at first I was a bit dissapointed as I had just plopped down $1600 for a 14" 5.56 pistol the day before somewhere else.  I wasn't too disappointed though.  I prefer the barrel and bayonet lug on the 14".  Will just P&W a 2" FH to it once the 922r kits come in stock again and I can get one.  The price invested will be about the same as I probably wouldn't leave the factory brake on the CZ carbine...it's yuck.  Why they didn't use the same 3 prong as the pistols I dunno.

My 14” Bren 2 pistol finally showed up. I will be welding the Surefire Warcomp on it today. I was planning on ordering the bayonet just as a collectors item but had a thought that maybe it won’t work with the Warcomp. Does anyone know if there is anything special with the existing flash hider or can I assume it will work as long as the Warcomp OD isn’t bigger than the factory 3 prong OD?”

Im planning on doing the same thing. Is there a suppressor that works well with both 5.56 and 762x39? Someone at the range told me that deadair does. Is this correct? Does Sure fire have such a thing? Also, does the warcomp help keep the muzzle rise down helping stay on target? How does it compare to the SOLGW NOX?
