Short-Stroke Gas Piston System

Short-stroke gas piston with adjustable gas regulation keeps propellant gases out of the action—reduces carbon fouling compared to direct-impingement designs. Return spring contained within the action eliminates buffer tube dependency, enabling the folding stock.

Folding Adjustable Stock

Folding telescopic stock with raised comb reduces overall length from 35.6" to 28" when folded. The buffer-less design allows firing with the stock folded—not just folding for transport.

16.5" Cold Hammer Forged Barrel

16.5" cold hammer forged, hard-chrome-lined barrel with guaranteed service life of 20,000 rounds. The CHF process produces consistent bore dimensions and superior rifling. Chrome lining provides corrosion resistance and extended bore life under sustained fire.

Aluminum Upper / Carbon Fiber Lower

7075 aircraft-grade aluminum alloy upper receiver paired with carbon fiber composite lower. The combination maintains structural rigidity at reduced overall weight—7.3 lbs unloaded.

Modular Forend

"Ms" designation indicates modular forend system—swappable to different lengths or styles based on user preference and mission requirement. The forend compatibility provides long-term platform adaptability.

Non-Reciprocating Charging Handle

Non-reciprocating charging handle stays stowed in the forward position until needed. Swappable from side to side to accommodate left- or right-handed operation without tools.

Ambidextrous Controls

AR-style ambidextrous bolt catch/release mirrored on both sides of the receiver, with an additional catch/release nestled into the front of the trigger guard. Ambidextrous magazine release and manual safety throughout.

Full-Length Picatinny Rail

Full Picatinny-style rail on upper receiver provides mounting surface for optics and accessories. No iron sights included—optic-ready configuration from factory.

30-Round Detachable Magazine

30-round detachable magazine in standard configuration. The magazine well accommodates standard STANAG-pattern magazines. The CZ Bren 2 Ms delivers gas piston carbine performance—16.5" CHF barrel with folding stock and ambidextrous controls for versatile 5.56 rifle capability.
