and I actually kind of enjoyed it.
First time ever with a bullpup rifle and I really enjoyed the overall shorter length. Felt very maneuverable and easy to switch targets. Reloading was big drawback compared to a standard rifle but I’m sure with more practice it would be more natural. Trigger wasn’t the best but after a couple rounds I got used to it. Not a fan of the 5.7 round compared to 556 either.
What really surprised me though was that I actually really liked those grips. I know they’re not for everyone but they felt very comfortable to me and it felt like I had more control overall of the gun.
I think I might buy a bullpup rifle next for the novelty of it. Does anyone know if there are any conversion kits out there that will give other 556 bullpups a similar grip? I realize that the market for accessories for these kinds of guns is kind of niche but you never know.
