im starting to really like the idea of the bullpup concept, i have a few conventional military style rifles and am looking to mix things up a bit either by getting one of the very new designs (like the XCR) or go with a bullpup... i like the way they balance, comfort, compactness, and the mobility they offer in tighter spaces and for such compactness it seems your choices are either to chop the barrel VERY short, or go bullpup

so for the sake of variety, for trying something new and adding greater diversity to my collection, should i buy a bullpup (currently liking the IWI tavor (civilian israeli tar-21), FS2000, steyr AUG.. or get a modern, but still conventionally laid out rifle such as the XCR?
