I agree with everything but the front grip. And that only because of the P90 and how close to the trigger group its front grip is. For a small caliber bullpup its actually ok to be that close, it /almost/ feels like holding a pistol with 2 hands. But if it's a bullpup type AR, then I'm not so sure...
Well, it looks like the L85 carbine was the influence, and that does have the front grip fairly close to the trigger pack. But that doesn't look particularly fun to grip either, and the front grip is about the same size as the pistol grip, while this one is less than half and looks like you'd have a hard time getting more than two fingers around it.

I think my biggest objection (which I hadn't edited in when you replied) is that having a front grip is a little pointless when you could just extend the handguard; guns that have a vert grip that close to the trigger are generally carbines with barrels that stop right on top of the grip (ie Groza, L85 carbine), not full-size rifles.

Personally if it's small enough that you need a front vert grip imo you should just use a pistol lol I understand the use of short barreled carbines and what not, I just REALLY don't like using a vert grip. I find it uncomfy, Course I've only used them on long guns... like my frends SR-25... I still don't know what posseded him to put a vert grip on that XD

But ur right, the grip probobly is to small to make it worth having here.

The perfect Steyr for you isn't loaded and has a C-mag clamped to the right-hand side of the barrel?
One could argue that it's no longer bullpup, and is simply some sort of normal layout variant. I think.

Well then you get into the issues of it having no mag well, ejection port or even action, or the whole "why use the AUG if you're not making a bullpup" question. Then again, he's also got a silencer stuck to the front of a flash hider there, so I'm guessing know/firearms isn't exactly his character speciality.

Indeed. Perhaps people should indicate whether they want technical or aesthetic criticism?

Well, if they post it at all they presumably want something...

I know that. I was asserting that perhaps they would like to differentiate what kind of something they want.

XD I lol'ed at the two of you. Tho you make perfectly good points. Ik for almost any of my works I go for technical critiques over aesthetic >.>

try being imaginative for once! think of a modern Tommygun!


Don't see what that has to do with an AUG that loads using the power of positive thinking. Being imaginative and making no sense are not the same thing.

And so is he. His gun is a basic Thompson with new modern components as opposed to the old ones.

(and is also quite badass if you ask me)

I made a rather bad tommy gun. I don't care aabout technical criticism as I generally know jack shit about guns, but feel free to comment about the aesthetics.
