Would you change the title to read "military bullpup" and add an extra space for "None of the above" please and thank you...

AUG. Because I still remember what a rush it was when I saw that Buck Rogers ray gun for the first time as a young infantryman. Oooooh I wanted one bad!

Of course it's a perfectly fine rifle too...which helps.

Cheers,
Oly

Aug is good, Tavor is little "uncomfortable", L85 is also nice and generally, bullpups are nice.

Not that if i had the opportunity to have them i will now buy them, but Bullpus in generally are uncomfortable specialty if you are "medium sized" or under.
They are not ambidextrous. (Except FN 2000 that is ambidextrous but i really find its design uncomfortable and with low possibilities for Customization.)

But since i am right-handed i have no problem with "ambidextrouality".

But really, i would choose non of the above because i believe that bullpup technology have to advance and make steps into the future.

But if i have to choose from the above:

AUG
FN 2000
TAR 21 (With the longer barrel)
L85
Bushmaster M17
FaMas (Yeah, i don't really like French guns... Specially when they remove the trigger guard)

Bushpup! That's the Bushmaster M17S Bullpup. Love mine, but they are not for everybody. The ergonomics take some getting used to. I like the odder gun, and it seemed everybody and his cousin has an AR-15, so when I found one at the local gunshop, I bought it.
Since I generally ride a motorcycle for day-to-day transportation, I can break the Bushpup down to fit a 30" rectangular guncase that does not scream "Man with a gun!", and it straps onto the bike's cargo rack nicely.

My Bushpup:

The Steyr AUG is very nice too, but out of my price range.

I would say p90 for sure except for the ammo isn't as common or cheap

Gelgoog · November 29, 2009, 02:03 PM

Well I think the P90 is the best of the bunch. It does not seem to have any of the problems that I had with the two of my MSARs.

the FS2000 would be pretty good if it did not have problems with double/tripping feeding and such a difficult weapon to clear jams from.

Crankylove · November 29, 2009, 03:35 PM

My favorite would be the Barrett M95.........the rest are just too ugly.

StuntManMike · November 29, 2009, 03:50 PM

PS90 as you can shoot weak side and the jams easier to clear than a FS2000

ormandj · November 29, 2009, 04:30 PM

I like my RFB, as I enjoy 7.62x51 and also love the forward ejection (I reload, and collecting brass is easy). You didn't have it listed as a poll option, though.

Microgunner · November 29, 2009, 05:06 PM

I voted for the FS2000 because I own one. I bought it because....well....it looks cool. I actually prefer AR's for serious shooting.

What about the Kel-Tec Bullpup It seemed like it was going to be a nice and affordable rifle.
Whatever happened to it?

Lashlarue · November 29, 2009, 06:34 PM

For the prices they charge, I just as soon get an Uzi, good enough for the Secret Service good enough for me.

ormandj · November 30, 2009, 01:54 AM

espnazi, the RFB I referred to in my earlier response to this thread is the new Kel-Tec rifle.

I love mine, well worth the price I paid. Once production ramps up, you should be able to pick them up for 1200-1400$. My only disclaimer, they seem to be ammunition sensitive. I reload, and I've found loads that appear to be sub-moa (need to run many more groups before I call it fact) - but it certainly can do 1-2 MOA with the right ammunition. Not bad for a battle rifle that's ~28" long, overall, shooting 7.62x51!
