    with the new pricing on the XCR, it is now on the high end of NR rifle prices.
    If it's either loud, obnoxious, fast, hated by the general population or any combination of these, I OWN IT!!

    I still find it super weird that there's no bolt release on the 805 Bren. They're very charging handle focused.



    I think they did a great job with the Skorpion carbines though. Particularly when I think about them next to a Kriss.





    I must be missing something in my understanding of the BATFE, because I always thought they were as least as stringent as the RCMP when it came to machine-guns, if not more. I don't get why the Skorpions and Brens are good to go stateside, but unavailable up here. I'd go nuts for a 9mm sub-gun that was under $1000.

    Bolt catch on the left like the SCAR.

    I think it's that they're stringent but honest. If the BATFE decides somethings good to go, they let it in. If the RCMP finds that something's good to go, they hang on to it for years.

    Yes, a catch but not a release. Unless the one I handled was broken and their marketing materials are wrong. Three years ago their floor model didn't even have a bolt catch on it!

    I'm curious how long Cz-USA pushes these 805 Brens before switching to the 806 models the Czech Army just ordered.

    I'll buy one in tan. You know why? Because I can't have a SCAR, and this is probably as close as I can ever get. And because it'd look pretty sweet with an 11" barrel.
