Bullpup recommendations

Hi ladies and gents, I'm on the hunt for a good bullpup, something that will be a quality bit of kit indoors and outdoors so it has to be good quality. 

One gun I hate is the Aug Steyr but I'm a big fan of the likes of the Tar 21 etc. The problem I'm having is I can't seem to find a bullpup that's a fairly new gun, their all pretty old now.

Any recommendations ? 

 
I've been looking at that for a while. Hasn't it been out since 2011 ? Surely old tech now or am I being nooby as I'm a noob 

 
Other than recoil AEG's and some electronic gadgets nothing much has really changed in airsoft for a long time.

Buy it fit a mosfet and run lipos and you get a gun that is very accurate has good trigger response and is built like a tank.

They just dont break a friend of mine has one thats 4 yrs old and has fired countless bb's and when you open it up it looks like it just fell out the factory.

There is also the unique factor and if you put on a suppresor or nice flash hider on it they look amazing.

And stay away from TAR-21s. While they look cool, they are about the worst gun type I have ever worked on.

How much modding does WE scar take to put on HPA? I realise the bullpup kit comes with the hose line predrilled.

 
No clue. This isnt a WE. Its a VFC Scar, which is possibly the best looking Scar. It took some work to get it in though...

Yeah, the KIT is only for WE as I understand it. Nontheless, it runs on HPA without tapping the magazines? Or is it an AEG body?

I contacted the manufacturer last week and they said those bullpup scar kits are designed only for we SCARs.

It is true. I had to do a fair bit of modification to make it fit the VFC. and the VFC is an AEG. But I wanted to run my Gen 1 P-Mags which I have spent forever collecting, so I needed an AEG body.

 
f*ck all has really changed in AEGs since Marui released the first ones in the very early 1990s (maybe late 80s...).

Nobody makes a good quality Tavor.  The ICS SA80s are well made, the Real Swords as mentioned.  Right now I can't really think of anything else that's decent quality in an AEG which isn't an AUG.

 
I wanted to make one of these Scar L bullpups but in AEG shame there is nowhere to have the battery

JG P98-1 is a fantastic budget bullpulp, and comes with a m4 mag converter (so you can run m4 hi-cap... or any-cap mags).

Range, accuracy & build quality is unbelievable for the money.

Granted it's not as fancy as some of the others these guys have posted but if you're on a budget it gets my vote 100%!

Compared it side by side at my local site with an ASG Steyr(/AUG) A3 (I think), and it was definately just as good , arguably better!

 
Battery isnt the issue - you could make that work. Its the motor...
Ok thanks for that,  I knew there was a problem somewhere but couldn't put my finger on what the issue would be. I'm not really up on taking rif's apart so was unsure where to start. 

I cant see how I'd make it work so it will just have to stay as a dream idea. Which is a shame because I love the look of them 

 
Yea, you have to go either standard WE GBB (which I dont like) or put a fair amount of work into it and make it HPA.

Yeh that was my main worry........Why do I always pick the "Can't happen" ideas?

lol :angry:  

 
The trick is finding the "just about do-able but most people wouldn't bother".  There's a balance in between too-easy and pretty-much-impossible.  That's how you build interesting guns.

Indeed, I was investigating the relatively easy concept of connecting an electric hicap to a hose paired with a HPA hose into an adaptor(with expansion chamber) for a GBB thinking "this must have been done before, how hard can it be", but not getting anywhere.

So much for my ∞ rd HPA powered GBB pistol.

Yes I often consider attempting this kind of thing, but knowing my luck it would all go horribly wrong. I may still keep an eye out for a Scar L and have a tinker.
