CZ BREN 2, The Next Big Thing? Video Review

By Tim Potter

U.S.A. –-(Ammoland.com)- I was always a huge fan of the original 805 BREN and felt like it was a very well thought out and solid rifle. That is why I was a little surprised when CZ announced the BREN 2. I really didn’t think that there was too much to improve on. Well, I couldn’t have been more wrong.

When you first pick up the CZ BREN2, one of the most notable and welcomed changes is that CZ put the Bren on a massive diet. They managed to trim almost 2 pounds off the original Bren. The Bren2 weighs in at a mere 5.6 pounds. Which is insanely light for any AR-type gun, but practically unheard of for a piston-driven platform. The lighter weight is a welcomed improvement and immediately noticeable as soon as you pick up the gun. The weight, or lack thereof, also just makes the ergonomics and handling of the gun that much better. CZ achieved this by trimming down the aluminum upper receiver and going with a carbon fiber reinforced polymer lower. I will also say that the BREN2 has a slimmer barrel profile than the original.
