CZ Bren 2 MS: The Civilian Version of a Modern Combat Rifle (Ad-free)
Added 2024-06-26 12:00:08 +0000 UTCCZ's Bren 2 is one of the more successful recently developed military service rifles, having been adopted by the Czech Republic and Hungary, as well as entering licensed production in Ukraine. The semiauto Bren 2 MS is a fine rifle on its own merits, but also offers an opportunity to build a near-perfect clone of a current service rifle. This used to be possible with imported rifles before 1989, and is seeing a bit of a revival these days with companies having domestic American manufacturing facilities.

I went back and looked at your review of the military Bren and it looks like the civilian version has a different stock and fewer screws that hold the barrel into the receiver. Also the CZ web site does not show backup sights with the rifle. I wonder if there are other internal mods?
