Remove some the waffle patterns and they might be onto something.

I am highly interested in the Bren 2 in 308, and even more so in 7.62 x 39 mm, but CZ says they are years ( plural ) away from being readily available in the US, according to what I was told via email by CZ myself last week about the 7.62 x 39. It seems that this has been their reply for several years now, so this may be some pie the sky rifle that you will never be able to actually own. I would certainly want one if they are ever available, but with CZ's track record about putting out new product and our uncertain Gun Rights future, that is one big IF.

I can't remember a CZ product officially announced that wasn't relatively available within a year of the announcement. Since a Reddit post isn't an official announcement, the clock hasn't started in my mind. I'm sure it will be here eventually. It'll be available when they announce it and if it costs less than the Scar Heavy, they'll blow out of them. Maybe they'll open a factory in the US and we'll have them sooner.

I am not knocking CZ, as I really like their firearms. I have the Scorpion and love it. However, here is the quote from the email I received on 08-08-18 from CZ regarding the Bren 2 being released in the US. " The Bren 2 (Or 807 as you refer to it) is years out as stated prior. Sorry for being the bearer of bad news." I hope they do release the Bren 2 ASAP, but based based upon what I was told in the email, I am not getting my hopes up to be able to get one anytime soon.

It sure is cool looking. I hope it comes in at 7.5lbs or less.

My point was since CZ hasn't announced it, I'm not going to worry it isn't coming soon. Bren 2 was announced at shot in 556/223 available at the end of the year, with no mention of .308 at all.
