Why isn't bullpup considered strictly superior?

I've never actually handled a bullpup rifle, is it awkward to hold due to the hands being close together or something?

A non-bullpup basically adds deadweight/useless length for a butt to place on the shoulder, a bullpup avoids this. Why aren't all new rifles bullpups?

The triggers are pretty mushy on every bullpup

Some people like the traditional rifle design better

Adjustable LOP stocks are not really a thing on bullpups

The extra barrel length is negligible
>>
because bullpups are for faaaaaaaaaaags
unless you're a polesmoking cock gobbler you should not touch a bullpup

I know this whole "every marine a rifleman" and "first to fight" shit is all marketing and memery but why is it that every time an army unit trains alongside a marine unit you see a bunch of fit men in tailored uniforms alongside a bunch of fat fucks in garbage bag uniforms?

Because the majority of non POG Marines joined specifically because they are mentally damaged individuals, who grew up in broken homes, who want to go to war and hurt things. We take our military service very seriously. As it should be in any combat unit.

Many army grunts are legit welfare queens, and they don't even require a high school diploma. Not to say there arent some 1337 11x operators, but ij all honesty, a lot of them are bums.

Just now realized that staff sergeant is boot as fuck.

>every Marine a rifleman
>marketing

Not really. EVERY Marine is legit taught how to utilize a rifle plus gets combat training. Now whether the individual takes their training seriously is up to them.

>first to fight
This refers to how we're first in when it comes to conventional warfare. One of the Marine Corps missions is to act as a shock troop, while the Army comes in after to hold it. Again this is referring to the services' standard infantry.

Rangers lead the way.
Despite thier insecure bragging, marines don't do much of anything but shwack civilians and catch bullets.

What was your favorite part of BCT? Pic related for me. It was great to see all the gung-ho mesomorph brofags on their hands and knees crying with snot streaming out of their noses. Shit wasn't that bad, I could have gone back in for a second round.

Went through The Rock with FDNY. It was our first day on fire side, and we all geared up not knowing what to expect. Instructors put us on air and put us in the burn building, they start a fire.

Tell us if anyone leaves they are done. They brought the temperature to just below flash over levels. Holy fuck that was hot.

I got some creation mags for my al yesterday and the first one fit perfectly did t even think anything about em. Decided to try and fit them all before I actually took them to a range this weekend.
Well three fit perfectly. One stuck a bit when trying to release and one wouldn't even catch the mag holder at all.
Whip out a file and go to town
First one fits perfectly and now gonna file down the mag catch on the one that wouldn't even latch
After about 30 mins of filing, gonna test it again.
Missed the front mag catch and the whole mag slips when I jerk it back and the edge I put on it slaps me on the nuckle...
It's about a 1/4 inch deep
And won't stop bleeding

So how's your day?
Anyone else have problems with Croatian shit?

What would the legality of a mobile gun store be?

Say I wanted to buy/make an off road RV type vehicle like pic related, and make the interior into a small gun store I could drive around and be able to set up at events and such, would it be legal?
Would there be restrictions like could I only operate withing my home state or could I be able to travel the nation selling guns?

>>29136881

considering that these do not exist, I'm going to guess they are not legal.
>>
>>29136901
>>29136881
Actually I think the FFLs at gun shows count as mobile gun dealers since they sell stuff outside of their registered storefront or address.

Not sure what the legalities are, perhaps a gunshop anon whose worked a gun show could explain it.
>>
>>29136881
>>29136901
Don't see why it would be any less legal than a gun store owner setting up a pavilion at an event such as a gun show.

I'm not sure about out of state though.

>Firing a gun from a tri-pod makes it more powerful

Is there actually any truth to this? It doesn't sound right but I don't know enough about it to say its untrue.

He is British and has no military experience, which means his understanding of firearms is about as refined as the average COD kiddo.

It makes it easier to control, which makes the "machinegun" (a unit consisting of a gunner, tripod and gun) more powerful. But the gun itself is still the same.

Leupold vxr patrol.

If you can get your hands on one it'll sell itself. Only complaint is it's not very friendly on shooting with both eyes even on the lowest setting

Dont skip out on Optics since you bought a SCAR. by a good 1x4 optic from vortex or a nice 10x from leupold

perhaps an AR?

or you could get a mossberg 500, pistol grip only. would be easy to sling around and it will work on most woodland creatures quite effectively

The mossberg sounds nice, I'll be in the urban most of the time anyway

Sub2k so you can actually stow it away and not look like a psychopath brandishing a firearm.
