just curious what the minimum oal is for a bullpup without going sbr
dangit... so close...same as any rifle.
BTW: Friend build a 7.5" barrel AR SBR and it was only 1/4 of an inch shorted than my MSAR with a 16" barrel. I'll take the longer barrel any day of the week.
And factory AR trigger are great or something? That is news to me I have yet to see the stock AR15 trigger that would hold a candle to the one on my modern bolt guns. Never understood that, they spend all this extra money on fancy attachments and still use a crappy trigger.That's the advantage of the bullpup design. The disadvantages are:
-Generally crappy triggers

Now if you get a SBR (Short barrel Rifle) tax stamp then it can be shorter, but most bullpups are already just about as short as they can go.
That's why I said "most" and "just about" Plus I'm only concerned about models available for sale in the US to civilians (ie us).
Most of those you mentioned are military versions. If you look at most civilian versions you can cut the barrel down a bit but because of the stock and/or gas piston arrangements etc... on most you'll be losing no more than an inch or two.
IMHO going through all the trouble and expense of a SBR tax stamp is just not worth it for only an inch or two. But to each their own.
