So as you probably already know, BREN 2 MS was not in the drop down so it went pending research. When the form went submitted in process the mfg box had "CZ-USA, UNITED STATES" in it. Unfortunately the form kicked out because I didn't include "CZ" as part of the model. Wasted a set of fingerprints.... |

If you wait for him to get more, I'm sure he'll send them to you, or you could request a refund if you don't want to wait. I've seen them come and go on his site a couple times. They don't stay in stock for more than a day it seems, then he pulls the listing off the site, when there's no stock. Not sure how often he gets more from CZ. |

On a different topic, does anyone know what ACOG that GIGN is using on their Bren's?
Obviously a TA-02, but anyone know what reticle? Also, I know that they have the RMR on there, but what's the thoughts on the practicality of a 4x optic on an 8" CQB carbine?  Attached File |

The payment went through, and I am not really worried about it. I just figured he's send me something at some point via email. It seems from others he's an honest guy. We'll see.

Which stock did you order? I ordered the original stock. I keep 2nd guessing my decision because I like the look of the BR stock as well. That is correct, I reached out as well to see why they pulled the listing, and it was due to the huge demand. I have received my tracking number and its already en route ETA Wednesday. But, I ordered early while they were still showing in stock - when he first told me he had listed them. I believe he only had 8 stocks total when they were first listed. Because of that, that's why I did not post that they had stocks available here, because I knew the demand would not meet what was in stock. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By Zeebz: So what's the consensus on stock quality? Need to figure out what to put on my Bren 2 and thinking either a Dan Haga + ACR stock or a CZ Bren 2 BR stock if I can find one. It just comes down to personal preference. The BR stock matches in finish/material, it allows you to field strip without tools, it’s “clone correct”. The ACR stock is arguably “better” since it has an adjustable comb but you might not need that feature. I just realized I don’t know if the BR stock locks closed but if it does that’s something it has over the ACR. Either stock is going to be sufficient in terms of durability and performance for 99.999% of users/applications. |

What do you guys think of a Magpul UBR stock on the Bren 2? Really love the UBR on ARs and it is pretty close to an ACR stock minus the adjustable cheek riser. And since the Bren 2 is already ready to accept buffer tubes, I'd think it'd be a pretty great stock to put on.

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By airgunner: Bad idea. UBR's are way too heavy. It would completely throw off the balance of the MS (and look a little stupid too IMO). I strongly disagree. The gen 2 UBR is heavier than most collapsible stocks but its not like you're attaching a brick to the gun. The bren 2 is already a light weight option so there is "room to spare" before the gun becomes unnecessarily heavy. IF someone likes the UBR and wants to put it on their Bren 2, rock on. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By airgunner: Then I guess we can agree to strongly disagree. The logic that its OK to put heavy shit on a light gun because it has "room to spare" escapes me. People can do whatever the fuck they want to their own stuff. Stick a hello kity stock on it for all I care but don't expect me to think its cool just because you do. You gonna be ok? There's a balance with everything. While 7.62X39 is not exactly a heavy recoiling cartridge, it does recoil more than 5.56. Adding some weight to the system to improve shooting characteristics is not going to turn a good gun into a piece of shit. As with everything there is a balance. You add too much weight and the gun becomes a bitch to carry around. You remove too much weight and the gun is a bear to shoot. Mission dictates gear. For those of us not humping rifles around on extended patrols, a few extra ounces to dampen some recoil is hardly going to end the world. |

Quote HistoryOriginally Posted By castroyy: Here Here!!!!! Which can, which position, and what diameter?? I have three cans I was going to play around with. Dead Air Nomad, Wolfman and Wolverine. This was drilled on the OFF position. The smith said: "It looks like they actually anticipate that spot to be used because that and the smaller port actually have a plug in it. You can see the offset round outline around it" I was doing a lot of research (so was the smith) on other people's experience with Bren 2 and drilling a suppressed hole. Found someone who drilled 1.5875 mm on a 9" 7.62 Bren 2 and they had some success with it. He suggested a smaller size in his post. The smith and I agreed that 1.3mm was a good starting point and can always enlarge later. If it doesn't work out, I'll just stick with the normal setting. Honestly, it's not so bad on normal setting, but it is definitely overgassed. I have asthma and sensitive to smells, so it really bothers me when a gun blows a lot of gas to the face. Smith said it wasn't too bad to do but I don't have a drill press and didn't want to risk doing it myself. I'll keep you guys updated. I will definitely be testing this soon. Nomad, Wolfman long and short config. I can't find a 1/2x28 insert for my Wolverine at the moment. Hoping those 2 cans work well with it. |

Also, just installed the HB Industries Trigger. Holy shit, putting back the hammer was tough as nails. Yes, I probably need to pump some iron, but damn, I didn't think I could do it. The spring in mine had more coils compared to their install video. Wondering if this is different because mine is 7.62.
