Can anyone explain to me the sudden popularity of the Bullpup design - has anyone ever actually missed a target because their barrel/rifle was too long? Both offerings from AA and Gaystate are the wrong side of £1k and, according to the reviews, could both be improved by fitting a mod? Isn't that another 5+ inches anyway? In close quarter armed combat I can see the advantages but sneaking up on a half witted Collard Dove in the yard? As for aesthetics - alongside the likes of the R10 or S510 US they sure are fugly.
