There's a reason the BREN 2 has earned a cult following since it landed stateside. This is a clean-sheet design built for the Czech military, not a warmed-over version of the original 805 Bren, and CZ trimmed serious weight in the process. The upper is machined aluminum pared down to just what it needs, while the lower is molded from carbon fiber-reinforced polymer. The result is a short-stroke gas piston pistol that tips the scales around 5.4 pounds, which is remarkably light for a piston gun with this kind of duty-grade construction.
The 8.26 inch cold hammer forged barrel is built to take a beating and comes threaded 1/2×28 for your muzzle device of choice. The adjustable gas block lets you tune the system for suppressed or unsuppressed use, which is a feature you will appreciate the first time you hang a can on it. Up top you get folding, adjustable iron sights riding on a full-length rail, so you can run a red dot and still have backups when you need them. Controls are where this gun really shines. The safety and magazine release are mirrored on both sides, the bolt catch works from either side of the receiver, and the non-reciprocating charging handle swaps sides in seconds and doubles as a forward assist. Lefties get a truly equal experience here, not an afterthought.
Since this 5.56 version feeds from standard AR-15 pattern magazines, your existing mag collection works from day one, and CZ includes two 30-rounders to get you started. The flat rear plate has provisions for mounting an AR-style buffer tube, so there is plenty of room to configure the back end to suit how you shoot. The modular forend can be swapped to different lengths as well, and the whole platform supports barrel and caliber changes down the road. At 19.9 inches overall, it stows easily in a backpack or truck bag while still delivering the reliability of a piston-driven action that shrugs off carbon and keeps running. This is one of those guns that feels every bit as refined as its reputation suggests.
Yes, the 5.56 version of the BREN 2 MS feeds from standard AR-15/M16 pattern magazines, so PMAGs, USGI aluminum mags, and the like all work. CZ ships this one with two 30-round magazines. Only the 7.62×39 BREN variants use proprietary factory magazines.
It is. The 8.26 inch cold hammer forged barrel is threaded 1/2×28, which covers the vast majority of 5.56 muzzle devices and suppressor mounts. The adjustable gas block is the real bonus here, letting you dial the piston system back when running suppressed so the gun stays smooth and clean.
The pistol ships with a flush rear plate that includes a provision for attaching an AR-style buffer tube, which opens the door to stabilizing braces, cheek rests, and similar accessories. CZ also makes factory rear-end hardware for the platform, so there are several directions you can take the back of the gun.
Unlike the original 805 Bren, the BREN 2 uses a non-reciprocating charging handle that stays locked forward while you shoot. It can be swapped to either side of the receiver in seconds and also functions as a forward assist. Combined with the ambidextrous safety, mag release, and mirrored bolt catch, it makes the gun genuinely comfortable for left- and right-handed use.
