          I got mine for like $1500 three years ago. Had to wait until CZ figured it’s shit out re: the overgassing problem (x39 models only) though, which was a pain in the ass.

              Anonymous

              It’s a long story but yeah, the fix was simply a new gas regulator with smaller ports. Shame it took them so long to get it done, but when I heard it was out I emailed them and they sent me one right away.

              what's the stock on the top two?

              Stock on the x39 Bren is a PMM Kate Moss repro, stock on the XCR in the middle is an actual Sig Kate Moss stock.

              That one isn't mine.
              Mine looks better. It has the ACOG a pinned and welded 14.5 and the waffle stock and like I said I will have the bayonet for it soon.
              Once its all together with the bayonet I will spray paint it and take some pictures.

              That’s awesome, really cool you kept the bayo lug. I’ve been thinking about swapping to the BR stock and painting my 5.56

              does the bren 2 have adjustable gas and is it ok suppressed

              Yes it has adjustable gas. With the stock regulator it’s overgassed without a flow through suppressor, not horribly overgassed but still. The solution is an aftermarket regulator, or to drill out the third position (zero gas) on the stock regulator. I’ve done both.

                I run 9.5 inch handguards on all my ARs even my AR10 anyway so I figured go with the 9.5 handguard and keep the bayo lug and buy the bayonet.
                I actually owned the bayonet before when I had the Bren 805 with the 14.5 barrel and bayo lug.

              2022 and onward made gas settings on the x39 have different settings. Normal gas. More gas. And less gas. There is no off setting anymore. I am unsure if cz will just give you one of these new plugs or alter yours if you ask them.

        Ok, but what does an actual defensive load do? Although to be clear 7.62x39 and .300 blk are better out of short barrels. 5.56 just isnt bad either until you get to sub 10" barrels.

                Your hand loads might do that, and probably with better stddev to boot. But none of the commercial ammo, brass or steel case, my range has tested saw average velocities past 2300. We'd see the occasional round go up close to 2400fps, but that wasn't a good thing when the average was 100fps slower and we'd still see rounds on the lower end of 2200fps.

                Fair enough. Although I’d venture that 120+gr bullet going 2300 is still preferable to 55gr at 2600, not that I’d want to be shot with either.

                Whichever one lets you get it there. Any expanding/fragmenting ammo in your lungs, heart, or head at 2000+fps is going to make simple respiration the hardest thing you've ever done. We just aren't built to stop metal that's going to peel back on itself hanging out inside us at mach 2.

    The scar is 3200 bucks and then requires 600 dollars in upgrades to be any good
    It needs the ACR stock and adapter which are epxensive
    It needs the geissele trigger which is expensive
    The Bren needs a couple upgrades but HB industries has them all for super cheap. An extended charging handle upgraded trigger and safety and a longer handguard and you are still under 2k
    The bren is actually competetive with ARs in my opnion.
    It is comparable to getting a high end AR like an ADM with the full ambi features but you also have a folding stock and its really light weight, simple, easy to take down and maintain and the action feels like butter
    A fully upgraded Bren 2 is comparable in my opinion to an LMT AR which is over 2k
    The only downside to choosing it over an AR like an LMT or KAC is that you lose some parts compatibility with the militia.

            Honestly if I were to design a modern assault rifle it would be an AR but the charging handle would be forward of the optic similar to a cz scorpion but it would also be able ot be locked back HK style and then you could HK slap it.
            But the rifle would also still have a bolt catch/release on both sides so that when you run dry you can just put a new mag in and hit the bolt release.
            The charging handle and its lock back feature serves the purpose of malfunction clearing.
            In a double feed you have to lock the bolt back, take the mag out, rack the bolt till blockage drops out, then load a mag back and and drop the bolt.
            This is easier when you have a charging handle that can be locked back easily.
            The Sig really offers nothing special. It essentially just copied ADMs bolt release/catch and kept the worst feature of the AR the charging handle which wasn't even designed by eugene stoner but instead a moron who karl dick sucks.

    (Came with 2).
    Eventually I bought the 5.56 sleeve and used 7.62x39 AR mags because they work 99% and it's all I could find.
    Didn't like that fix.
    Still couldn't find CZ magazines.
    Sold it.
    Never looked back, especially now that braces are on the chopping block.

    The sig is just a side charging AR in a caliber you cant afford
    The bren also isn't perfect
    The Bren would be better if it was an internal piston system like the AR and if the ambi bolt catch/release weren't in the trigger guard. Even tho when you lock the bolt back witht he trigger guard bolt catch/release you can flip on the safety witht he bren making it a non safety issue even tho morons complain cause they are used to ARs and bad levers

    The main problem with the bren, scar, acr and many other modern rifles is that they fell for the 2010 meme of piston systems being the bees knees
    Internal piston systems like the AR15 are actually way fricking better than piston systems
    The positive pressure you end up with in the chamber causes them to be extremely reliable in adverse conditions.
    The piston meme exploded around 2010 to 2015 cause of the HK416 over the beach video and everyone bought into the meme that you need to be able to go from submerged to instantly firing for a rifle to be good.

      Or replace the lower with one that accepts standard AK magazines.

      You don't have to replace the lower anyway despite what anon says. The 5.56 version is the same lower as the 7.62 but just has a sleeve in the magwell which is sized for pmags. Ergo, you can put that sleeve in and use 7.62x39 AR mags. That's what I did because there were literally no bren mags anywhere at any price for as long as I owned mine. The AR mags were as reliable as they are in an 7.62 AR which is okay but not stellar.

        Only reason to replace the lower would be to use AK mags, you’re correct about the sleeve

      I do declare:

      XM7 > 7.62 AR > AK-47 > 5.56 AR

    They fact they actually started selling barrel kits says a lot about them actually trying. My 9in x39 SBR has been flawless. It took them long enough to fix but the 2022 upgrade seems to have worked.

    Why are people saying they're having trouble finding x39 bren mags? I've seen them constantly for sale by the box load for over a year.

      They were halfway difficult to find during the panic. They haven’t been hard to find for years now

    Other stuff I'd rather buy. I repeatedly find myself wanting one to go with my Manurhin for GIGN LARP but then I'd rather put that money towards an objectively nicer gun. Which has happened about 2 dozen times since that gun was given a Gen 2. I'll get one eventually, but we're in a mini golden age of rifle imports and don't want to squander it.

    Banana mags are ugly on anything that isn't an AK, with very few exceptions.

      imo it takes a certain aesthetic to pull it off, but generally true that stanag pattern looks cooler

      It's not even the same type of rifle though, also not even available to civilians anyways.

    At this point, why not AK pistol with folding stock. Cheaper than even a normal AK.

    Cause this is a Sig Spear clone and if you wanna a proper Spear with fixins like suppressors and folding stock and computer scope you gotta ball out a little bit, you gotta have cash to spend

      What the fug are you talking about, the Bren is not a Spear clone in any way. In regards to Bren v AK: Bren for modern fully ambi ergos, lrbho, nrch, ease of suppression, etc
