I got to handle one at Zero Hour. It was cool, very short, and not as heavy as I had expected. It was a little pricey, however. I have not crossed it off the list of cool guns I would like to own, but until I start loading, I am not wetting my pants to get one.
How did it handle? Did it feel totally natural or was it awkward? (hahahaha oh man the strange comments that could go with that last statement)
One nice thing for those of us stranded in MA is the thing takes metric fal mags, which more or less grow on trees. No douche-mags for this rifle.

Well I have been working hard on getting my support hand out further on my hand guard and breaking old habits of tucking it in as much as possible, that plus I have a pretty long wing span, so it was a little different to hold a rifle that short. I am sure with practice I would get over it.
That's a huge reason it caught my eye.
The gun is pretty impressive, I might have to pull the trigger on one so-to-speak....hmmm....
Get one and bring it to the Mansfield shoot (if still on), I will have some .308 with me.
A nice man at BRP let me shoot his, that he had bought from ZHA. At 100 yds offhand my first two shots nearly touched. It was very controllable with rapid fire as well.
It's HEAVY, so it's actually pretty handy. I love the way it wields.
My only issue is the price tag. I would just save a few extra hundred bucks and get an HK-93, but that's not bullpup.
There are a few for 1300 right now...pretty fair priced for what it is.
If I were in the market for a new rifle, I would consider one at that price.
What kind of ammo were you running through it? Surplus or real deal?
did you get a chance to really move it around? I'd really like to see how quick it is getting on target, I'm on my fifth review video haha

It was handloads the guy had, he wouldn't let me shoot my cheapo Federal 150gr ammo.
At BRP they don't let you move around, but he had one of those 3x ACOGS on it, and it was FAST onto target, and even though it was heavy, it had nice balance forward of the pistol grip. Since the muzzle is so close to your front hand, it's easy to start/stop movement with it. It's very much what I call "weildly".
At 1300 I would consider, the last price I got on one was much more than that.
