I really hope they actually make it here; I was able to fondle a restricted model and they are beautiful.

Buy a restricted carbine model and have it converted to NR. There's still 2 carbine model barrels in stock at one of the sponsors who makes custom barrels.

I definitely do not find my 18.5 incher front heavy... granted I have the tiny handguard on it currently. But it balances better than shorter barreled ars I've had.
I agree, maybe with the long handguard it makes it way more front heavy but as it is with the normal oem short handguard it feels great
Yea I too agree the Bren is hands down way better handling then the SR. Actually handles better then the T81 rifles aswell
Any more rifles available?

HB industries has a 15.8 inch handguard that works with the carbine length gas system so you'd only have 2.5 ish inches of barrel sticking out. If you get a dlask custom you can get their 13.8 inch handguard that has the short gas system cut out and have 4.5 ish inches sticking out (my prefered ratio) and less material out front adding more weight. Both of those options have a better barrel to handguard ratio than the stock configuration.
I'm guessing the non restricted will come with the carbine model handguard. If I'm remembering correctly the barrel to handguard ratio with the HB 13.8 and 18.5 barrel is the same as the ratio on the 16.5 carbine.
Holy! Lots of info here - thanks!
I`m not super up to speed on the options on these but what gas system will the 18.6" NR have? Carbine? Or something else? Has CZ confirmed this yet?
I know with ARs that a NR length barrel would most likely have a rifle length gas system - I know I'm not comparing apples with apples as the AR is DI and the Bren 2 is a piston gun.
What are the gas options for the Bren 2?

It's either the short or long gas system. Everything up to the 14 has the short gas system. The carbine model has the long gas system. I would venture to guess that the 18.5 from the factory will have the same length as the carbine. My Dlask bren has the short system because I had an 8 inch bren prior to the barrel swap.
This lets us avoid having to do new orders with completion charges, or having to manually calculate shipping for each order when the firearms arrive. It streamlines everything on our side when the firearms are in hand so we can get these out in a reasonable time frame.
We do get cancels once in a while. We're not restocking the product on the website as it would trigger a mass email to everyone who's signed up for notifications (which, for a single cancellation would be annoying as it would basically be sold instantly again)
