I'm confused by that last part. What do you mean by "Even if I wanted to go to the trouble to pin a 14" barrel to rifle length, such spare parts are not even available yet?"

I am trying to understand this because this is what I'm looking to do. If I buy a 14" Bren 2 MS and install the 922r kit, I can then pin/weld a proper length flash hider to get to 16"+ and then it's a compliant rifle, right? Can I use any flash hider?


Mine is an 11" barrel, which I like, especially in 7.62x39 since it only loses @ 100 fps at the muzzle compared to a 16" barrel.

It would be nice to have the ability to convert to a rifle using a spare 16" barrel (i.e.: in 6.5 Grendel), but no spare barrels, 16" or even 14", are available as spare parts from CZ, or any aftermarket vendor that I'm aware of.

Preferably you would blind pin a 2"+ muzzle device to your 14" barrel to get to the 16" requirement for a rifle with an actual butt stock, plus add a few other US-made parts to make it 922r compliant. Of course, nothing says you can't have a 16"+ barrel on a pistol, with or without a brace, and therefore, not have to bother with 922r.

Edit: After speaking with CZ USA, there will be a 7.62x39 parts kit available in the future. Additionally we should expect the glorious waffle-maker stocks in the future.
Did they give a hint as to how far in to the future that will be?

It seemed they were unready to give any hints. Just that it was planned. Given the current issues with supply and trying to start up a new factory a state away, I wouldn't hold my breath.

There are a few 922r kits floating around. The ones on Gun Broker are a bit excessive in price. I got lucky and found one at a local shop. The owner had ordered 4, 2 for his use and 2 to sell. I was able to get one for $325 plus TX sales tax. I probably will be selling the stock and hand guard in the near future, if I can make a MagPul UBR work. I have an HBI extended hand guard I intend to install. I probably will need an anti wobble kit to make the UBR stable.

Can you tell us what's the difference between that handguard and HBI's?

Yeah, I'm not seeing much reason to buy a 922r kit, just for the pleasure of jumping through a bunch of hoops and putting my name front and center before the BATF for an SBR. The pistol accomplishes everything I need for an 11" barrel without all the hassle. Even if I wanted to go to the trouble to pin a 14" barrel to rifle length, such spare parts are not even available yet.

I have an 11” barrel, which is great for 7.62x39. But if I wanted to make mine a rifle and use an actual butt stock without going through all the SBR BS (which I won’t do) I’d have to have a 16” barrel or pin a 2” extension on a 14” barrel. But, of course, neither of those barrels (or anything else to speak of) exist in the CZ parts inventory right now. I’m not gonna stick a 5” extension on an 11” barrel just to use a butt stock.

The HBI version I plan to use is 10.8 inches, it covers the bayonet lug location. I'll need to remove the lug when I take off the factory flash hider. I like the look of the longer hand guard. I've also considered putting it on an 11 inch Bren 2 and going the SBR route to replace my MSAR STG-556. My wife's a lefty and the AUG style bullpups are not friendly for her. She loves the straight down ejection of the PS90.

Thanks, I was thinking the HBI 7.8" looks realy like the cz 922r one.

I have a feeling they are the same. CZ USA seems to use a lot of unmarked (no brand markings) HBI parts in 922r compliance kits. The disconnectors are the same as far as I can tell.

CZ-USA has the 922r parts kits in stock right now.  I grabbed one for my 11" 7.62x39 Bren 2 MS pistol that I setup to use 7.62x39 AR15 magazines.

Thanks.  I think that the US made 922(r) handguard is superior to the factory original.  The attachment is simpler and the hold feels better.
