Sure is and why alot miss the concept of it. Longer brrl in shorter package.
Works for us soldiers why?.. Well try marching from Adelaide to the Gold coast and see how you go. Long barrel for more terminal effect which if you watch 9 Hole about the H&K53 they delve in to a bit of that apparently 2400fps is still good. 3300FPS is better.
Always been a calvary mobile infantry fighting force. Fit in a tuna can M113 APC to get from point a to b. Hence the Bullpup worked way better than a chopped off AR that wasnāt gassed right due to the hack job took them decades to sort it out to where it is today and reliable ā¦ with 2400fps
I think a lot of the predjudice against bullpups is not just the understandably awkward trigger mech, but also that most people have the silouhette of a Colt M4 so firmy burned into their subconscience they just canāt see beyond it.
Hereās a good example of improved battery storage on my āBig Mac With Cheeseā frankenblasterā¦ much better than the screw-out to access arrangement on the Mac-10s and fits a buffer tube 11.1v lipo.
Itās the wires coming from the battery itself, so unless I unwrap it not really, Iāve already shortened the blasters wires by like 4" cause they were unnecessarily long.
That ridge is more to guide an M4s charging handle, with the little bump at the back to stop the charging handle being pulled out too far.
Iād start by just removing the bump, but you could remove some of the ridge, I would try to leave it near the cylinder area though as that is the weakness of the V2 gearbox.
Anyone whoās got one if these would know theyāre an awkward size, too small to fit a standard buffer tube, only really fit the tube they come with and thatās too small for a buffer tube lipo.
A little bit of creative internal cylindrical sanding and M4 buffer tube fettling and itās the perfect stock for my M97 sniper. Good times!
@BME itās wilderness green sprayed through foliage over black with a bit of Rustoleum sand. A light dusting of the brown we used yesterday over the whole thing here and there to tone down the sand, which ran out and spattered a littleā¦ bummer but DILIGAF?
Looks a little different in the shadeā¦ but itās camoā¦ does the job. Gonna spray up the M24 the same when I get another can of sandā¦ forest sniper loadout.
The F2000 was the subject of one of the longest threads on the old forum. ZeHamish, Arty-Marty, Cruise and myself went to town on these things, and it still holds a nostalgic place in my heart as a firm favourite today. This oneās been painted up in green camo livery before but itās back to basic black now.
Itās running a stock Gen 8 box and a 7.3 inner barrel, sitting on around 280FPS. Uses modified Gen 9 stanags but will run CYMA stanags just as well.
Respectable, but time to go metal gears, red Chi Hai motor, Urkii MOSFET, lots of shell repair and noise dampening, repainting and a bit of weight adding.
Oh, and if anyone has an unloved F2000 sitting around and wants to offload it, let me know, hey?
