Can we see a discussion of how this manages a decent trigger whilst most bullpups are a bit mediocre? Maybe a discussion of bullpup triggers generally and why some are good and some are mushy and awful? I get that the issue is linkage between trigger and bolt/sear causing mush but it'd be amazing to see a few side by side so we can see why the good ones are good and the bad ones bad.

@@calvingreene90 yes absolutely. I understand the reason for mushy/gritty bullpup triggers but it'd be really good to see several trigger mechanisms for them dismantled side by side along with a discussion of how they feel so we can see what differences lead to what trigger feel.

@@calvingreene90 Gotta wonder why most designs don't have the sear near the trigger. Either a packaging issue (as there's now a barrel in that area) or a mechanical one. I wonder if translating the "mushiness" after the sear results in a mushy primer strike or sear engagement. I'd take reliable mushiness over unreliably crisp.

Simply avoiding plastic parts puts you far ahead of what initially gave bullpop triggers a bad name: the Steyr AUG. Then pulling bar instead of a pushing bar also improves the trigger a lot.

@@RaphYkun I suspect there could be an issue with a system where (for example) a striker had a long extension coming forward to engage with a trigger mechanism in front of the bolt. There's the potential for more friction in that slowing down the striker and resulting in light strikes... but there are definitely ways to do a "sear near trigger" bullpup system without this sort of nonsense. That's why I'd like to see what solutions have been tried and what worked.

The RFB has existed since 2009 and has an excellent trigger. Crisp, no mush, no creep, 5lb pull (hunter version). Not all bullpups have crap triggers.

I would be really interested to see 9 Hole Reviews put this through it's paces. That was some great shooting from both Karl and the rifle. It's also nice to be reminded that Karl isn't dogmatic in his views. This particular bullpup is fantastic, so he sings its praises. That's why I love this channel.

Bullpup triggers are such an obvious niche for the Remington electrical primer system... Got an electrical match trigger sitting on the bench, it's very nice and totally tunable. Wish someone would get the idea and try this-

Damn, that really is a pretty good idea. I mean theoretically you could have a system with a firing pin that's just electrically released somehow and then just have the trigger itself wired up to the mechanism. That being said, from what I've heard, The SRS A2 already has pretty much the best trigger in a bullpup.

And if it was hunting it would be laser focussed on the critters so wouldn't be paying attention to other things.

Impressive rifle. Impressive shooting. The circling hawk adds to the drama. The compressed length of the bull pup configuration really adds to the deployability of that rifle. I’m really pleased that the few Patreon dollars I contribute per month provided exposure to this gun. I’m interested in how they accomplish such an excellent trigger, usually a weakness of the bull pup design.

Karl, they're even more versatile than 6.5C to 300W. Aftermarket companies make 223 sized bolts/mags and also it can handle the 338L. For my A1 Covert I have a 16" 308 barrel for practicality, a longer 338L barrel and bolt for reaching way out, and a 510 Whisper barrel for silliness (lobbing 750 grain Amaxes out to 500yds suppressed). It also takes some of the still out of buying a top shelf scope when you can use it in so many ways.

It can be pretty helpful if you plan on using (hunting/other) in .300 WM or .338 LM but ranges near you won't let you use anything that large. In my case I can get 5.56 for $.25/rd and get a LOT of trigger time in-between using the bigger stuff. Now I just need to get the rifle... But I can attest to the MDRX being pretty awesome (although a bit heavy).
