New Springfield Import: HS Produkt VHS

[Chucktshoes]

Looks like Springfield is bringing in some version of the bullpup made by their Croatian partners and fielded by the Croatian Military. 
 

The HS Produkt VHS-2:

Documents Show this as the likely imported configuration:

 

It is unknown whether SA will convert for 922r compliance (the smart move) or leave the end purchaser to do so, but this is a better picture of what it is supposed to look like.

If they stay with the G36 styling as the guy in the video kept referencing this could be a very sweet setup. Was the barrel length in the video an SBR ? Looks like the last pic as a barrel a lot longer for a BP setup.

I do not believe that this will be a hit.

Kinda cool. But it has that "way out of my budget" look to it.

Since owning a Styer clone, I've not been a big bullpup fan. This is interesting, but really doesn't change my mind. I think I'd still gow with IWI/IMI for a bullpup rifle.

It took me a long time to get the meaning of the picture in the first post.

@hipowerI agree - bullpups just aren't my thing. Their compact size is neat, but that's where it ends for me. I'd just as soon have an AR-based gun, where everything is where I'm used to & expect it to be. Too much muscle memory built up to switch to a bullpup now for this old dog. But it's nice that the manufacturers keep giving us options to pick from.

I just can't get into bullpups for some reason.

[Chucktshoes]

Me neither, but I like actual military rifles getting imported instead of neutered trash like the HK SL8.

I like it the more I see about it but the reality is bullpups just don’t rev my engine.  They are incredibly awkward and require an entirely different train of thought when operating.

And at $2,000 that’s a big no.

I liked my MSAR quite a bit once the trigger was modded but this thing looks like the FAMAS and the keltec RFB had a dumpster baby.  I think the TAVOR is a better choice if you just have to have a bullpup.
