Hey all.

Was cruizing through Gun Blast's version of the SHOT show and found this.......

VLTOR is one for this. So far no more info.

Looking a lot like a CZ clone but with some extra milling to refine the shape. It's nicely done.

And then Armalite's AR 24 for comparision.

Wasn't the CZ based off the Bren Ten's???

The original Bren Ten was probably the first CZ 75 clone--the "Bren" came from "Brno", although I don't think that's where the CZ-75's were made. Jeff Cooper, who had a lot of input in the original design, apparently thought highly of the CZ-75. I've always been a fan of the original Bren Ten--let's hope this one addresses some of the issues the original had with magazine supply problems and cracked frames. Here's the thread from last year.

Look better than CZ.

Cooper eventually decided that the Bren Ten was not what the defensive handgun was about.

No, it's the other way around.

The VLTOR Bren Ten will use there own mags (complete with floor plate that can remove the bushing) and can also use EAA Witness mags. Mags shouldn't be a problem. VLTOR is saying that the outside dimentions of their Bren Ten is the same as the original. They are also coming out with a 4.25" version too!!! I'm pretty stoked about this handgun and hope it makes it up here.

We can hope for the best. Plus the more that show interest, the more likely it will happen in enough numbers for us to get them up here.

the "Bren" came from "Brno"

I believe the "Br" came from BRNO but the "en" came from Enfield.....

Never been a big fan of the CZ-style, but since it's 10mm I'll take two.

Now there's a guy with his head screwed on straight!!!

I'm excited, a young guy could only dream of a mint Bren Ten until now.
