CZ Bren 2 MS Drop-In Barrel Parts Question...

Pretty easy to swap back and forth. I did it a few times already. Love it.

That shorty gas system would be perfect to cycle subsonic 300 Blackout.

Does the short gas system and long pressure dwell cause problems with an 18" non-res barrel?

No ,it's not actually. The system needs to be shorter to run subs without a can. Yes, the short system work fine with a longer barrel. Helps to have a higher compression spring like the HBI or ours but is not strictly necessary.

I have ordered soe special material to modify the .300 barrel i have been playing with. Once the last of these 7.62 guns are out the door tomorrow I will *maybe* have a few free hours to spin off the parts I think are going to work well for the sub / super bits neededt o make the project work.
 
Well, in case you were all wondering, my Bren's natural state is in the 18.5" configuration. I haven't taken it outside in the 8" swap since I got it from Leigh.
The 30 day window to register was never broken so no laws were broken. Really. I know the regs.

Why get the swappable barrels if you can't test them out? Gotta find my pearls now....
 
No, I think you successfully turned my comment around on me, now I feel like one of those lame “law abiding” gun owners. Rock on man. Better days ahead.
All good. Nothing "lame" about being a law abiding gun owner, just lame having to keep up on the law/reg changes like you're a friggin legal secretary cramming for a case.

Now... where is my pic of my BRS99?
 
The time limit of 30 days to report is just that. Ian Runkle made a video about this.
Edit: found it.

He suggested you must report within 30 days, even if you return it to NR.
Either way, yes discretion is the better part of valour.

So, you put a pistol grip on your Serbu 6" 870 to see how it looks, and then put the Spec ops folder back on to make it NR again. He is saying you still must report it within 30 days, and I imagine you would need it re verified back to NR.

Interesting. Some food for thought thanks for the vid link.

Good thing I was playing Minecraft and forgot to screw in the barrel properly to complete the shorty configuration.
Hang on, actually that pic must be from before I sent in my Form 5547e when I bought the rifle.
My memory sucks....

NO.

Since this is my thread I feel free to chime in here and say that that IN THE CONTEXT of some posts here this video is BOTH correct and incorrect.

Everyone needs to understand there are laws for rifles and there are laws for pistols. In the context of a rifle then yes, you have the 30 days as Mr. Runkle says in the video. But when you also reference the 870 Serbu this DOES NOT APPLY and everyone needs to be fully cognizant of this before running afoul of Johnny Law.

If you put a pistol grip on a pump action shotgun (Shorty) then it magically (POOF !!) becomes a pistol under our insane laws and can NEVER return to N/R shotgun status. And as the saying here in Communist Controlled Kanada goes - "Once a pistol, always a pistol". So if you put a pistol grip on any one of our shotguns and it falls below the minimum 660mm tip-to-tip threshold to remain N/R then it will spontaneously burst into pistol mode and will remain in this mode forever regardless of your begging and pleading common sense to the Lib-Tard controlled stools in Otter-WAAAAAH.

Before anyone posts legalese here please ensure that it is factually correct so others that are less aware of the detailed minutiae of our laws don't get caught up doing something that will cost them in either legal fees or loss of property.

Big shout out for posting that video - as it pertains to rifles/barrel length. I had been wondering about going R to NR and taking it to the bush. I could not see the Crown taking that court because it's an NR at that point, despite what the registration system might say. But Runkle makes a good point that it's probably going to cost you a lawyer if you get "caught" doing it. Cheaper to just buy another receiver...

This is correct, I had forgotten about this wrinkle, and all apologies.

The ruling was flawed in most peoples opinions because it was presumed that you could then fire it with one hand, making it a pistol. Which, of course is nonsense, and a stretch of the definition of a pistol.
If you can fire a 12 guage short shotgun with one hand, you can certainly shoot almost any rifle with one hand, including a mares leg. You would have a hard time reloading it with one hand though. They ignore that part.

What they didn't want was a bunch of super short shotguns out there with pistol grips being called NR, so I believe they held their thumbs on the scale a bit, reasoning that it would be upheld by judges for the same reasons.

My post is edited to reflect your will. I didn't want to go OT, but thought it was important, as most people think you have 30 days to report, and that is what the law says, but it says nothing about you don't have to if you return it's status. It says you have to report, period.

Just another clear example how flawed the gun laws are, made by flawed people with very little real knowledge about guns.
