Bren 2 MS, USA Version - is here per CZ-USA

CZ-USA says the civilian Bren 2 is here now. It is called Bren 2 MS.
Not more info yet - different fore end and ???
Wonder if they will be at the distributors and dealers in time for Christmas? No price points or quantities are mentioned.

I would love to play with a 7.62x39 version. It’s a winner if the gas system is adjustable for suppressed use. AK mags would be awesome but I can live with proprietary mags. I’m also interested in the 5.56 NATO version. I already have a SCAR 17, but I want a short-stroke 5.56 NATO rifle in my collection.

I have a full sized 805 Bren, so I'm in for a pistol of this new version if I can convert it to an SBR.

Yes, curious to see how this will roll out - lots of possibilities but not much info yet.
Here is a European link with more pictures of the Bren 2 MS -

Have not found a distributor or dealer that lists them yet - curious about price point!

The gas regulator is three position: Normal, Adverse, and Off. The Off setting simply lacks a hole and blocks gas from meeting the piston. It wouldn't be too difficult to turn the Off setting into a Suppressed setting by drilling a small hole and gradually enlarging it while testing for function. CZ seems to be pretty good about selling spare parts as well, so a spare gas regulator for experimentation doesn't seem out of the realm of possibility.

I'd be interested if it took AK mags. If not, then I've owned enough proprietary mag guns that I'd avoid going that route again.

It does not take traditional rock in magazines. With the Bren 2 the magazine well can be modified by either removing or adding an insert. Takes standard AR type mags for 5.56 and CZ 7.62x39 mags that push in. Should also work with 7.62x39 mags that work with an AR if the mag well insert is used.
But no, it does not take “AK” mags.

It is possible to permanently modify magpul AK magazines to work with the 7.62x39 version. There's a video on youtube showing a way to do this.

Anything to update either caliber?
