    Default Check out my new toy!

    Finally! Wanted a Bren 805 for a long time and finally found a good deal on one!

    The Bren is a piston gun that uses AR mags (which I have pretty good supply of). I swapped the Aimpoint PRO off of my AR onto the Bren. I'll stick the Inforce WML on it as well, then probably pick up a 2x7 or 3x9 for the AR. If the Bren runs well and lives up to the hype it will become my primary HD/zombie gun and I'll set up the AR as a precision/varmint plinker.

    I have not followed the Bren so I'll be interested in a range report on it.

    so the definition of a criminal is someone who breaks the law and you want me to believe that somehow more laws make less criminals?

    Yes but you were expecting something in .303 with a magazine sticking out the top!

    Hahaha! No, not that Bren I'm afraid! Would be neat though. No, mine is the civvie version of the Czech infantry rifle. I think there's already a Bren 806 out that features some minor tweaks to the design. This rifle ticks off a lot of boxes for me of things that I want in a rifle. Again, not sure when I can get to the range given the weather and my work schedule but hopefully soon. If it runs as well as I expect then I will consider getting the pistol version with an eye towards a future SBR. Wish it was available in .300 Blackout but maybe in time. CZ seems to be fairly responsive to consumer demand.
