The '''CZ 805 BREN''' is a Czech modular assault rifle, designed to be adaptable to multiple calibers and roles (carbine, light squad automatic and marksman) through the use of quick-change barrels and a separate magazine housing. Introduced to the public in 2009, the CZ 805 replaced the [[Sa vz. 58]] assault rifle as the standard infantry rifle of the Czech Armed Forces. With a simple swap of the magwell unit it can go from using CZ's proprietary polymer magazines to using [[STANAG]] magazines and vice versa. | The '''CZ 805 BREN''' is a Czech modular assault rifle, designed to be adaptable to multiple calibers and roles (carbine, light squad automatic and marksman) through the use of quick-change barrels and a separate magazine housing.
