Bullpups are neat and I'm really curious as to how they feel to fire, particularly bullpup AKs

What calibers are those? I see the shotshell is 20ga, and I think the middle two are marked 8x57 JRS, the top one might say 22 but I can't make out any of the other markings.
Apparently it's .22 hornet, according to the gunsmith's website

This is like the Jakobs guns in Borderlands, holy shit.

because I have a raging boner.
I think I need a much better word than just pretty to describe those things, especially that bolt-action oh my god

Conversions are universally shitty due to having a trigger system not made for the indirect link, with that just slapped on as an afterthought, most often by a simple metal rod that goes from the bullpup-trigger and back to the real trigger like a fuckin' 5 year old made it.
[QUOTE=download;45057411]I always thought the AK charging handle was in the wrong place.[/QUOTE]
The problem with the AK is that the charging handle and sights are perfect, for an 1890s bolt gun. Those parts of the AK were designed to have the same feel as the Mosin rifles or as close to it as they could get for the sake of familiarity. That was a common theme among early automatic rifles, similar characteristics with preceding bolt actions were found on the likes of the Garand, MAS, and the Tokarev rifles as well, the difference is the AK hasn't been replaced with something a bit more modernized in that regard, and probably won't be any time soon.
[QUOTE=MAC21500;45058666]LINCH cover is way better; basically gives you a FAL charging handle:

I don't dislike the LINCH, but I'm not sure I'd say it's better. I'll admit it has a few advantages over the Ratchet (easier to install, some people may prefer the FAL style to the G3 style, and it works with any length AK), but it also has some downsides, it's built in to a dust cover so you can't use a different (hinged/railed) cover, you can't lock your bolt open with it, and it's blocked by anything mounted on the side brackets.
How does the p90's magazine work? I've always been confused.

The bullets are rotated 90 degrees.

All valid points.
There are rail sections that just replace your rear sight, like the Attero Arms mini/micro dot mounts, and many people who "tacticool" their AKs end up using an upper handguard optic mount.
If you want to lock your bolt open, just use a krebs or other "brand" modified safety to do so, costs a lot less.

Pretty sure he wants to know how.
I suspect the bullets turn on the shoulder of the brass.
It's time for some side-mounted scopes.

There's a feeding ramp on which they rotate.
[editline]11th June 2014[/editline]
The tip of the bullet hits the feeding ramp, while the entire bullet is being pushed by the spring. As a result it turns.
[QUOTE=PaperBurrito;45072389]How does the p90's magazine work? I've always been confused.[/QUOTE]
Since nobody felt like actually looking it up...
[quote]The P90 uses a unique horizontally mounted feeding system—patented in the United States—that contributes to the weapon's compact profile and unusual appearance.[12] U.S. Patent 4,905,394 ("Top mounted longitudinal magazine") was awarded in 1990, naming René Predazzer as the sole inventor.[31] The detachable box magazine is mounted parallel to the P90's barrel, fitting flush with the top of the weapon's frame, and it contains 50 rounds of ammunition, which lie in two rows at a right angle to the barrel.[17] As the cartridges are pushed back by spring pressure and arrive at the rear end of the magazine, they are fed as a single row into a spiral feed ramp and rotated 90 degrees, aligning them with the chamber.[17] The magazine body is composed of polymer, and it is semi-transparent to allow the shooter to see the amount of ammunition remaining at any time.[17][/quote]
In addition, it has a couple linked dummy-rounds instead of a follower, since a follower wouldn't be able to actually push down into the twisty-bit of the magazine to push down the last couple rounds.

nope

Pretty clever, lets you keep your head way down, and allows completely free view of the irons.
Him resting the rifle on it's magazine made me sad, though.

The only problem is that if you rest your rifle barrel on top of the wall, your side scope will most likely be obscured or it will get in the way.
