    don't get me wrong, I like the original too

    But I love modding things... whether it be a gun, PC, car, house... whatever

    but... different strokes and all that

    A lot of the cooler looking bullpup rifles probably aren't legal for civilians to own... or maybe they cost a lot.

    Do you dislike bullpup?

      Triggers are really, really ****ty. The main advantage of a Bullpup, the size, is negated by the restrictions in place with the NFA regarding SBRs. In addition, most Bullpups are proprietary, making them expensive, while AR and AK platform stuff is open source less expensive.

      For that M-14 conversion it's kinda silly to make a gun that uses a caliber intended for long distances(.308) in a design intended for house clearing. I'd add that for the money you would drop on a M-14 + juggernaut chassis you could have spent it on a SCAR or something(or a NM M-14 with glorious walnut stock).

      Also they ugly.

      • you know what's bull****? I want to have a 40mm cannon mounted on the back of a pickup truck... or maybe a quad .50 setup

        but i don't think that's legal

          Just file for a DD stamp for each one of those 40mm shells and you're good

            I've made so much fun of DD over the years that he'd never approve me

              Every single one of them began with accepting my asking price at face value and then after some negotiation on time/place..."okay, I'm going to be driving down from NJ(or NY), that's okay, right?". Since I don't particularly want to go to prison, I've had to ultimately say "sorry, no can do" to all three.

              That's just sad.

                Have you seen the timney trigger for the tavor? 4.5lb pull apparently.

                • Also, Lonestar, the weight is a lot further back on bullpups which is easier on the arms of a lot of people.

                    "All you need to do is add even MORE money to a already expensive thing to make it work". And there is no such Timney trigger for that abortion Sava was talking about.

                    Excessive front heavy weight is really only the case for ARs with weirdo piston systems.

                    • I can purchase an automatic M-16, and its a gun I used proficiently in the US army. I plan to do so along with some ammo, can't wait but must. Can take it to pieces and reassemble in my sleep, even after all these decades. Its a great weapon!

                        • Question: When laser guns or rail guns... or whatever is going to come next in terms of man-portable weaponry... will civilians get to own one? Should they be allowed to own them?

                          I can only imagine future guns will be powerful and accurate enough to take down an airliner.

                          This whole "right to bear arms" thing is a hilariously childish notion being used to protect what is basically a hobby for idiotic, anti-social man-children. It's all fun and games while dozens of children get mowed down every other week. But will we still put up with the gun lobby once airliners start getting shot out of the sky?

                          That debate will be fun to watch. I hope I get to see it.

                              ...it's just too cool.
