Think about how many of our guys lives could have been saved back in WW1 and WW2, etc... when they were clearing tight spaces likebuildings, tunnels, caves, etc...had they had an ultra compact and ultra quick handling rifle like these bullpups instead of thoselong bulkyrifles like the Springfield andGarand.
Springfields and garands could be shot left handed to shoot around right corners to reduce one's profile without the ejection port being in their left ear. Springfields and Garands were all battle tested. Springfields or garands won't make the receiver and 1/2 the barrel a permanent part of your head if fired with an obstructed barrel or out of battery.
