CZ USA Webstore has parts listed, some in stock

They have bolt assemblies and extractors listed, but non in stock. They do have recoil assemblies in stock last I checked.

Unfortunately, half the parts remain out of stock, including critical wear/breakage parts such as firing pins, ejectors, extractors, and the pins and springs thereof, are perpetually out of stock. I’ve signed up to be notified when they come back in stock, going on several months, but only heard back on some screws for the hand guard (that can be bought at the local hardware store).

Quite telling is that the 7.62x39 gas tube, which is at the crux of the problem for guns in that caliber, is not even listed. This part, with the correct sized gas port drilled, would immediately correct 99% of the problems that bedevil those guns, is still not available. Otherwise, if you could get your hands on one or two to experiment with, or swap for suppressors, hot ammo, etc., that would be ideal, but still for naught from CZ.

On the other hand there are several parts listed that are not even shown on the Bren 2 parts diagram, so I’m not even sure what they are.

Parts support improving? Maybe, but still nowhere near adequate.

Thanks. I’ll keep an eye on it.
Not only CZ parts, everything is hard to find nowadays.

Just spent an hour on the CZ USA web store. bleep place is hard to access, hard to navigate and hard to order from. Whoever designed that site must be bipolar. Half of everything I need (critical wear / service parts) remain out of stock at any given time for months, years on end…and usually I get hit with credit card fraud every time I order from there. Unfortunately, you can’t find much in the way of factory parts for the Bren 2 from independent vendors like you can with CZ Pistols.

It’s funny, a few years ago, the CZ USA website / online store worked fine, easy and intuitive to search, find and purchase things. Then they “enhanced” it and turned it into a steaming pile of bleep.

You would think that CZ would understand that their crappy website is costing them a ton of money and good will. Of course, their customer service and build quality in general has gone to hell in the last few years, at least as far as the Bren 2. Hope they’re not becoming another Sig USA, using their customers as beta testers and dropping the ball on customer support.

Strange, today is the first time the site didn't freeze up on me with the spinning wheel, maybe they read your post?

Could be - there are CZ employees who are members here and surf through once in a while.
What parts are reported breaking on the BREN 2? I have no spare parts myself, but not sure what might need to be replaced? My little 5.56mm model probably has only a thousand rounds through it, if that.

Got a notice that Bren 2 extractors for 7.62x39 were back in stock!!!

…Only to find out less than 30 minutes later that they were sold out…


God, I am so sick of CZ’s bleepty customer support!!!

Well I’d  never heard of eeman so I googled them - they don’t have squat for the Bren 2. You can google Bren 2 spare parts and come up with a half dozen vendors both here and in Eastern Europe — none of them that list Bren 2 parts carry any extractors or ejectors and springs, pins thereof. Nada.

Good luck with your Bren part search
