The U.S. consumer market is saturated with defensive rifles, but there are few that offer battlefield utility like the CZ 805 Bren S1. For the shooter looking to get a piston-driven, 5.56 NATO-chambered defensive rifle, the CZ 805 Bren S1 should be at the top of the list. American Rifleman's resident southpaw, Kelly Young, is on camera this week to break down the “805.” For more information, watch the video or check out cz-usa.com.
