I am considering doing the vinegar dunk on my BRKT Gunny. Has anyone done a patina on the BRKT A2 that could tell me what to expect or show me a pic?

You'll get a nice patina with the A2 and vinegar, go for it.
Bravo on right after forced patina.
 
If you are going to force a patina I suggest you use dilute phosphoric acid rather than any of the fruit or vegetable acids. I'm not going into the chemistry but there are good reasons why phosphoric acid is a key ingredient in the "Rust Converters" sold by hardware stores, as well as the Parkerising process. Google it if you want more info
