      ​@@cooldinostudios i think its very obviously clear in this video that gen 1 and 2 were the proof of concept rifles to get feelers out there for this refined gen 3 model which they will probably make their flagship rifle and actually support. This rifle has a lot more longevity in it with the replaceable rails and a non pencil thin barrel alone. Not that its a for sure thing or that I even agree with doing it that way but that's what it seems to be.

    CZ doesn't get enough shit for how poorly they support the Bren 2. I have a 2018 x39 Bren 2S, and it is next to impossible to get certain spare parts up through today. 6 years, and it is literally easier to order spare parts from EU stores directly than deal with CZ.
    Throw on top the x39 issues where they initially blamed lacquered ammo and user error, when it was entirely the brens they import being overgassed to hell. Aftermarket vendors were able to get solutions knocked out before CZ could.
    Not to mention CZ had my gun for over a year in the middle of the x39 issues, and they somehow broke my barrel. But hey they compensated me by replacing my barely shot new barrel with one from a demo gun and a free hat, so totally all squared away.
    But yeah CZ pump out more guns you can't support, can't wait.

    Impressive - .308" to .224". Reminds me of the story in Frank de Haas's "Bolt Action Rifles". A 6.5 Arisaka bringback was rechambered in .30-06. The owner used for some time, but thought it recoiled rather much. He took it to a gunsmith who found that .308" bullets had been fired into a .264" groove diameter barrel without any apparent ill effects. The rifle was sent to the NRA who tested it. The rifle was eventually rebarreled and continued in service.

      that's because the arisaka was built like a brick sh!thouse

    68 years later and still the worlds best small arms engineers are trying to match the genius of Eugene Stoner and Jim Sullivan's AR15 design. Arguably it is still the finest combat rifle on the market. That's how far ahead those guys were.
    This does look like an improvement over the CZ Bren 2 but I'd still rather have an AR.

      An Ar180 is better for suppressing, kinda comparing apples and oranges when you can just own both like I do lmao

      The AR benefits from decades of military ownership and trying to refit it multiple times to change with the times and options
      Until some other rifle gets that treatment, it’ll be hard to compare directly.

    Love the BREN2, but the BREN3 seems to be so cool, and the MLOK handguard, great improvement 😊

    I find it quite interesting that alot of new AR's that hit the market kinda look like the ACR. Shows how ahead of its time it was.

      The ACR was far from being ahead of its time. I have one of the first 1000 released and it was overhyped to high hell. Remington/Bushmaster dropped the ball big time by killing all platform modifications. The Bren 3 looks like an improvement on everything the ACR was trying to be.

    Definitely the 556 version will be good, how well they fixed the x39 issues will have to see
