        Same. They just look cool. Its like how I love the Char B1 bis, its my favorite tank. Not because I think its the best tank or anything. I just think having more than one cannon is cool

    So, like… Is M.2 the bullpup of storage devices? 🤔

    The gun’s thing is that the magazine/bullet loading mechanisms are placed in the rear so you get all the barrel travel without having it be extra long, right?

      I NEED to hear the reasoning for this

        It connects straight to the bus, instead of further away. It’s mostly just equal to the mag placement without the need for a barrel to get something to “get up to speed.” It’s fast because it’s already there! 😃

    Purely aesthetically, I have a soft spot for the L85A1, Groza, and the QBZ95B

    What makes a gun a “bullpup”?

      The magazine and action are behind the trigger, instead of in front of it.

      ‘Normal’

      Bullpup

      It gives the barrel more length (allowing a more powerful or accurate shot) without making the gun itself longer. There are technical and ergonomic problems that sometimes pop up, though.

      Regardless, it looks really cool in almost all cases.
