Glory to the PLA for producing a standard issue bullpup rifle that isn’t total dogshit. Couldn’t be us on TERF island
is this thing as hazardous to pick up and operate as it looks to the untrained eye?
you probably don’t want to touch it if you’re left-handed, but that’s a common issue with bullpups (it’s just that on something based on the AK it’ll likely be worse, since those tend to have more violent ejection, so the cases getting bounced into your face are going to be nastier than most)
other than that though, I don’t think it looks that bad
the foregrip is maybe not the best choice, but it’s pretty much taken straight from the Steyr AUG, which is among the better-respected bullpups
yea I got to hold and fingerfuck an Austeyr once it felt great
no shade to the norinco but it does look ilke I’d cut myself on the stamped metal and more importantly it looks unsettlingly AK-like, but wrong, so its a wrong AK next to your face. Or something I dunno this is amygdala shit.
Is that pic with the guy holding the one with the drum from a video? (and if so may I see it?)
unsettlingly AK-like
It is literally just an AK, actually

Unfortunately, no, I think I got it off some article
but I do have this one from a video (https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=S7BTh1p--8w)

Yea… and I’ve seen footage of AKs firing with their dust covers off, beat to shit, bumpfired til they caught fire etc, I know they’re safe.
Even so an irrational part of me would feel weird holding that big ol’ piston even closer to my body.
happy to know my instincts are wrong and that the bullpup AK wont hurt me tho
I found a YouTube link in your comment. Here are links to the same video on alternative frontends that protect your privacy:
I reckon foregrip aside it looks reminiscent of the FAMAS which I don’t know much about
with the bayonet attached is probably safer for the shooter’s hand. if you trust the grip not to be worn out i’m sure it’s fine.
yeah, my concerns were less rational than that but I’ve been won over to the bullpup AK. I mean if a bean tin uzi can run why not this bad boy.
Hey, at least they moved the charging handle!
Bayonet on a bullpup :facepalm
The spirit of the old PLA lives!
Groza but less stupid looking
