I think 80cm for a bullpup is not too long.

What is this, 1:1 scale? Looks kinda close to the airsoft FA-MAS I have at the corner. Now that I look closer at the round, matching it against a 7.62x53mmR casing, the dimensions are rather close.

I'm not too sure about the ejection port, though. Even as the weapon extracts dud cartridges only, doesn't the ejection port still open during the action cycling? (bolt assembly moving back) If that's the case, hot gasses or just residual heat may affect the aim a they provide a distraction. I remember how freaky it looked during winter when my weapon started spewing smoke from every crack and seam.

Hey! What If you'd try a cased weapon next, eh? I could convert the round to a traditional 6.5x40mm. That would also necessitate a curved mag.

I had the ejection port in another place in an earlier version but I meant it to be closed during the action so it is no problem.

And I took the same scale you use I just fliped the scale of the bullet by 90°, even though I know that it changes the Proportions in Paint, so the actual scale is something like 1 to 1,5.

And of course I'm interested in a new weapon.

The ejection port itself is always a hole, but the metal and the mechanism blocking it is the bolt assembly, yeah? So following that thought, how could the ejection port remain closed when the system cycles? By a superficial examination the weapon looks like a traditional gas-powered assault rifle.
...

Wait... The port's too high... Usually the port is on the same level as the barrel... Oh, NOW I see. The action cycles deep within the weapon and the cover moves only when the user pulls on the charging handle. BTW, is the handle a non-reciprocating design or part of the bolt carrier ?
Still that much distance between the bolt and the ejection port carries with it the risk of jamming, necessitating the weapon to be held upside down to prevent such jams. And the bolt and bolt carrier assembly must be specially designed to allow thru-and-thru feed. The Rk.62, being an AK derivative, fed bottom-to-side, like most assault rifles (actually Rk.62 would mean AR-62 in english). The only weapons I know of having a through-&-through feed are MGs.

Too many big words, eh? That's why we have the miracles of [link] and [link] .

BTW, you know the Jäger Battalion 27? Don't google or wiki before answering that!

I think I got some of the things you said earlier

"The action cycles deep within the weapon and the cover moves only when the user pulls on the charging handle (YES). BTW, is the handle a non-reciprocating design <(YES) or part of the bolt carrier "

and With the last part your right I probably made a mistake. Would it be better if I simply add the ejection port at the side of the weapon like normal rifles?

And one more thing don't behave as cocky as in your last post.

It's okay. You know it is just, when you draw a gun, spend lots of time on it. (especially when you draw in such a big scale when you have trouble with your PC that makes it only show a resolution of 640x480)And then some body says there are lots of mistakes in it.
