- This week on the Vickers Tactical Channel we have the rare CZ 805 BREN A2. During our trip to Sellier & Bellot in the Czech Republic last year, we filmed a video featuring the CZ BREN 2 (Link Below). After the success and interested in that product improved version we knew we'd have to go back and show you where it started from.

The thing I love about this channel is you're basically getting a weapons review from a former Tier 1 Operator.
Even some of the most informative and well-researched gun channels are still from a civilian, "never-had-to-use-a-weapon-in-combat" host.
Don't get me wrong, they're still great, still offer a lot of valuable information.
But when a guy who's actually jumped out of helicopters and airplanes, swam in rivers, hiked through mountains and cleared rooms says, "I think this is a great idea" or "I think this is a bad idea," you know you're getting a great assessment on a weapon's capabilities.
Hell yeah .... reviews from a Delta operator
Agreed
I will never not be impressed when LAV goes full auto. His recoil management is superb. Great job LAV, keep up the great content!
The camera work is unreal. The lighting, the slow mo and the detail are all top tier
Larry. Attended a pistol course you hosted ten years ago in Savannah, Ga. Former Marine, 15 year cop at the time, and I learned so much from you. Thanks! P.S. I hope your wife liked the antiques.
Thanks brother! I appreciate it!
Love my 805. My AR has been in the safe ever since I got it.
I sold my AR for it. Still don't regret my decision.
I think its an Awesome firearm!!! It’s not easy to find a 805.....
A comparison between this one and a fn scar light would be much appricieted.
Nice vids keep It up
Throw in the Robinson armoury xcr-l for poops and giggles.
I can tell you the gist between them. The BREN 805 is surprisingly heavy, very disappointing, as I was really looking forward to it. Even the pistol version is heavier than a SCAR-L.
I vote for fn SCAR
Check out Garandthumbs video of the 805.
@@geebskerbal2771 was completely unaware of the xcr and holy fuck how are they all basically the same gun
Roger that Matt. Larry is also excellent in controlling his message. He gets to the point, is very straightforward, doesn't repeat himself, doesn't wander off the trail and is always succinct. No one else I have found on RUclips is as good as a communicator. You learn more in half the time with Larry.
Longue Carabine
This thing looks like a love child of a scar and a g36
if they had a baby, this is it.
They are all cousins, descendants of the AR-18
@@MarvinCZ ar-18 derivatives are always gorgeous
The two-tone finish looks rad, too bad it doesn´t have the early skeletal stock.
Mine has both 😭❤
It blows my mind how relatively perfect the AR is even today, so hard to beat.
The Bren 805 Carbine (Gen 1 Civilian) even with it's weight and ergo issues is a pure joy to shoot and the factory trigger is excellent. I generally find short stroke gas piston guns to allow for easier sight re-acquisition, but that's just my preference.
The Bren 2 Pistol (Gen 2 Civilian) is incredibly light, smart and handy, plus the factory ergos far exceed the Gen 1. The gas block adjustment on the Gen 2 is clearly an improvement and can be modified to match a suppressor if so required.
That said, the Gen 1 trigger and ambi safety selector still holds the edge in performance, but can be upgraded on the Gen 2.
Larry - thank you for all you do. I respect your opinion. Rock On !!!
Hi! sponsored ad person.
Larry, thanks for always making amazing content, I truly appreciate your work amd service to this country. I proudly salute you.
I was always curious why they discontinued these, makes sense with all those issues Larry went over. Always learn alot from these videos.
It's funny how the M16 is almost sixty years old yet still has features that contemporary guns struggle with.
@@TheCheat_1337 its just good lol its my rifle of choice
The first gen was (and still is) extremely unpopular among soldiers. Ergos are shit, the rails are sharp and they eat up your gloves like crazy. Reliability was horrible. On the first deployment with Brens (to Afghanistan), 48 out of 530 went down, there was an instance of six rifles going down simultaneously during combat in a single unit forcing six men to go down to their sidearms. Insiders say that CZ did not have the money and the experience to build a modern fighting rifle, they have been making hunting rifles and handguns exclusively for 50 years at that point, so they essentially put out a prototype gun to raise the funds and figure out all the kinks. But since CZ is a domestic company and the competitors were not, the ministry of defence gave the contract to them. The gen2 Bren is what the rifle should have been from the start and is in fact the first real generation of the 805 rifle.
@@TheCheat_1337 It wasn't just made 60 years ago and abandoned. It's got 60 years of improvements behind it. Otherwise we would be laughing how awkward it is to mount optics to the M16 carry handle.
@@smolkafilip even with all of that I would still like to buy one
Czech this CZ Scar out
But bren is more more more more then scar :)
@@empirefirstorder1543 Who said it's less?
This gun isn't Scar enough but bren 2 is more than scar
To není ani TROCHU! Ten váš Scar.
@@empirefirstorder1543 second generacion yes but first not much
That 2 shot double tap burst is absolutely amazing. Those two shots couldnt have been more than an inch or two apart on that target. Great fire control
Hey Larry, whats your dominant shooting hand?
Larry: Yes
Your high speed footage is fantastic for seeing barrel harmonics in action.
I’m a huge fan of CZ, I love that they’re always improving upon their designs. Was thinking of picking one of these up, I think I’ll wait until the gen 2 comes out.
It's already out in Pistol variants.
Gen 2 been out bro, a very limited run of regular bren 2s and the the bren 2ms have been floating around for a while
I went with this. Fde. The bren 2 is much uglier
I always thought that the 805 was a great rifle but the improved version is just out of this world! You can definitely see the difference in terms of handling thanks to the slow-mo; no wobbling, zero recoil.
Good gun, good review, good music. Really hypnotic.
Amazing control on full auto. Mastery!
That barrel flex is wicked
Vickers Tactical is the simple and The Best Gun reviewer ❤️
CZ BREN Series is my favourite weapon anyway.
Love everything about how this rig looks
Optic size is just right as well
Great vid! Almost bought this rifle a couple years back but ended up taking the money and building an AR instead. I’m glad you covered all the differences between Gen 1/Gen 2. Didn’t realize there were so many improvements to the new model.
Great to see you safe and back on here Larry.
We need to push harder for the repeal of the nfa & Hughes amendment
Chicken tax too
{Waylon Smithers} Nice copypasta
Yes, the NFA is unconstitutional
You can also acquire a very similar result via 2nd amendment sanctuary counties
All gun laws are unconstitutional.
Awesome !!!!!!!!! Thanks for showing this CZ 805 BREN rifle , Mr. Vickers !!!!!!!!! Living the CZ Life !!!!!!!!!
The vids are getting better and better, this one was excellent. I really like how you showed it firing at real time speed along with the famous Vicker's slo-mo.
Probably one of my favorite rifles. I've always considered it a 556 version of an AK but with better ergos. The smoothest shooting rifle I have ever shot too. I have no plans to ever get rid of mine. One of my boys will get it one day. I understand the negatives on the rifle. What i don't get is If this was a AK the negatives would be shrugged off as not being a big deal because it is what it is. Great Vid! Thx
When you're replacing design comparable to AK with something which is not that much better, then you fucked up since soldiers will always demand the older gun that they trained with, or some other gun which they rightfully deem as better (even if the alternative would be some worse gun but battle-proven, it would be preffered by soldiers). That's basically why you need to have significantly better gun if you decide to replace it.
A TOTAL PROFESSIONAL!! THANKS LARRY VICKERS!🔥👀💥💥👍👌best in the bizz!!
Czechs have always been able to make excellent weapons. Do you remember CZ75? Best pistol in the world.
I would love to see a episode on dmr's especially covering the M14 EBR since I would like to know your honest opinion on my my favorite rifle.
@@Panzer_Runner it wasnt the right rifle either, remember the FAL was about the same timeframe.
It's a piece of shit.
@@Panzer_Runner Special Forces guys will tell you they had M14's and didn't use them in Iraq-Afghanistan. They really aren't bomb proof like people would lead you to believe.
@@colt547 Ok so basically it's a piece of shit, I'll take my words back then.
@@Panzer_Runner i mean, i dont mean to be rude, i like the looks of the thing, but it's just not very good. the use of the m14 in afghanistan is basically just due to it being a 7.62 infantry rifle they already had in stock. small arms solutions has a vid on the m14, and i cant say he's especially impressed with the thing
I have been looking at optics for my bren, I guess im going to have to buy a aimpoint now!!thank you for the review!!
Another great blaster! Thank you for everything you do LAV! ✌️
I love to see that you've slimmed down there Larry keep it up sir.
I’m an an AR15 DI guy all the way! However I would make excuses for this piston rifle , I love the BREN805
This thing looks neat, but I have always wondered why they went for an AR18-platform instead of re-engineering the .vz 58
Vz.58 isn't friendly for modern upper receiver designs with a 1913 rail integrated into it. It was designed to be able to be topped off with stripper clips with a stripper clip guide integrated into the carrier. Reminds me more of the SKS bolt carrier and gas system.
Ever since Hk copied the ArmaLite AR18 operating system, several other companies have jumped on that bandwagon, especially the FN SCAR. The AR18 carrier allows you to elongate the cam pin helix so that you have a rotating bolt locking system that stays locked longer.
Totally unrelated. But I had a brand spanking new VZ 52. Man heavy, nice to shoot. But loved cleaning that thing. Cleaning the breach block was finnicky, but, OMG, what engineering and machining. Precision stuff👌👌👌
@@ozdavemcgee2079 A Finnish friend of mine had the short version, select fire. The first round I fired, this little pin fell out of side of the receiver onto the ground, where we searched for it and don't recall if we ever found it. It was grey with a half dome head on the pin. The enamel finish CZ used on the Vz was definitely nicer than AKs though and I like that it has last round hold open.
@@8166PC1 Well, the BREN 2 is designed for 5.56 and for 7.62x39. You can switch between the calibers in 10 minutes (according to what I read, never seen it myself)
@@LRRPFco52 Since H&K copied the AR-18? No, that started much earlier. I'm not sure who came first with an AR-18 derivative but the SA80 is one earlier example.
Shout out from Czechia, love your channel, so jealous of you guys in usa and your weapons laws =)
I remember a few years ago, Larry made a video on why he's fat, now looking back at that video and this, Larry looks leaner. But anyway, I don't think anyone should have any problem with him being fat or lean, All that must matter to us are his reviews and tbh I think Larry's reviews and content are one of the best around on RUclips. All the best Larry may you reach 1 mil subs soon.
Gotta love that high czechnology.
If it didn't have those problems man it looks so insanely controllable
Michael Srite I agree, it's likely very worth the minor issues anyways. I personally wouldn't mind the magazine release or the bolt release, but I'm sure for some that may be huge downside although I don't feel it is
I prefer the first generation Bren over the new one. I know second generation has a lot of improvements but I like the look and feel of the first more.
For those looking for a bolt release for the 805. There's a guy on RUclips selling a mod for it. Acts a bolt release for the bren 805 for all models.
Beautiful rifle.
I like the optic you're using
man I havent watched in a long, long while. sorry for that... but my man is looking GOOD! crazy even with aging you are looking great mate
Who remembers this gun in COD Ghosts?
It was also in Battlefield 4 as well.
i had been waiting for this gun wow
I also am a believer that S-1-2-A is the ultimate selector layout for assault rifles and SMGs.
Perfectly balanced gun. Any millitary would love to have it.
Egypt is going to locally manufacture the CZ-807 for the special forces.
Been a big fan of two-round burst in 5.56
Awesome! Thanks, Larry! Love your videos and books!
First time Ive seen LAV shoot from the assault position. Nice.
I absolutely love my Bren
Damn, Larry vickers can shoot full auto in pretty tight groups. Me thinks he has done it before 😉
Czech Republic made great guns👍
That little Lada came a long way into 21st century!
Forces on the gas block cause that barrel to flop around like a wet noodle in the super-slo-mo.
Noticed that too
Great review Larry, as always sir.
Was just watching your channel
Looking good Vickers! Keep it up!
For the mention of the issue with the safety and pulling the bolt back at 1:21.
I have one of these (granted of course it's semi-auto so I'm not sure how this carries over to the full-auto trigger pack) and you can pull the BCG back & let it go forward when it's on safe when the hammer is down. If the BCG is forward and the hammer is up then yes you can't pull the BCG back.
Also one nice thing I like about 805 over the AR is the ability to put it on safe even when the hammer is up. I love mine but man I wish it came with the ability to use a different grip on it.
You can, look up Dan haga designs for the Bren 805 lower. Have one on mine and love it
Shot my buddies first gen and damn is that gun front heavy, switched over to the BCM 14.5 and that felt like a feather in comparison.
Yeah but with a sling and it being a cqb .... you're not holding it at the ready non stop
I have rarely seen such flex in a barrel as in this carbine.
CZ builds good stuff.
Spent brass in slow mo never gets old.
It's kind of strange to see that much barrel flex in such a short barrel in the slow motion. But I guess as long as it has repeatable accuracy, that's all that matters.
That's normal.
It actually has very little ....
Holy barrel whip Batman!!
Hey Larry, love your vids. I'll got a question for you. What Is your all time favorite handgun, assultrifle and sub-machinegun? Been a longtime fan. Keep It up. Greetings from Sweden.
Thanks!! I got a lot of favorites ( as you would expect!) but I would say 1911, Sturmgewehr and MP5
@@VickersTacticalLAV Great choice! Hope you're doing well In these trying times with the Corona Virus. You and yours stay save!
Damn!!! That looks like a lot of fun!!!!
Love that slow mo :)
3:25 woah wasn't expecting that
I shot one of the milspec ones myself... not a bad shooter but BREN2 is really much better in terms of comfort.. no wonder, the guys from the army and special forces were involved in BREN2 development :)
It’s a good looking gun, kind of like a baby scar.
So a Scar without the price gouging. Nice!
I love thin-Larry and would you look at this guy put every single round, full auto, onto a target 25m away? Still a stud. Would not wanna fight against this guy.
That barrel whip though....
Super cool!
I like it sounds
Great gun LOVE from INDIA
Larry just likes gettin busy!
I don't see why CZ had to get rid of the 2 round burst mode in the Bren 2. That was a really cool feature
wouldv'e liked to have seen more of the 2 round burst. And I'd love to see an Mp5K-PDW video
wow, what a nice firearm, thanks
Looking good, Mr.💪💪
good 👋 very nice gun
what a good weapon you are the best one I wonder where you get all the weapons
Awesome looking gun!
The 805 leaves alot to be desired but it sure is a sexy beast!
honestly i think the m4 platform is almost perfection
This gun rips on battlefield 4
it was an ok gun xD
makukidd12 use it on bust?
Aek971 was my go to
Major Rager let me guess you played on PC?
@@geebskerbal2771 fuck no ps3 and 4 only
the slow mo auto fire sounds like Counter strike source when they first released it, i remember thinking the m4 sounded so goood
For the love of God just use the live audio of Larry firing the rifle, I hate hearing that fake as hell gunshot sound that's edited in every time he fires, ie 3:45
Otherwise, great to see LAV back with another video!
I bought one but it hasn't really wow'd me. Should have bought it with a happy switch!
First heard about this weapon from weapons of Millenia
Following the line of unconventional weapons. Can you make one video about Brazilian IMBEL IA2?
I always preferred the looks of this first generation design over the Bren 2, although the Bren 2 is a better weapon overall
Holding both side by side, the 805 seemed more of a solid, quality weapon. Functionality though the Bren 2 has more updates.
Exactly why I have the 805 ms1
@@stuartgorka989bren 2 is ugly imo.
