Odd how British engineers could take the IRA's favorite rifle (Armalite AR-18 and AR-180) and mangle it so badly! A dozen other successful rifles are based on the basic AR-18 mechanism.

Bullpups are not dead. Australia still manufactures their own version of the Steyr AUG and a dozen other countries (e.g. mainland China, Israel, etc.) have adopted various bullpups. The Israeli Galil is probably the best modern bullpup with IWI introducing up-dated versions every few years. Newer design bullpups are ambidextrous and have eliminated most of the early disadvantages (e.g. right-hand shooters only).
