Here it is! I'll put in how I did it later, I've got just enough time to put in the pictures :-)

As this is a bullpup, it is of course non-minifig-compatible, and I think the first ever BrickArms bullpup mod!





Here's a German terrorist posing with it:





Hope y'all liked it! Many, many thanks to sarge and obxcrew, for patiently helping me decide what this mod was. Thanks, guys!

EDIT: Here are the instructions!

Nice work and a good example of why bullpup-style weapons just don't make for minifig-compatible items.

Thank you very much, badger! Normally I wouldn't make something as useless as this, but what I modded it from was a loss already :-)

Great concept and execution! The mod looks a bit scuffed up, though. May I reccomend pinning the pistol grip to the weapon, rather than gluing it? That may look a bit better.

Overall, great work!

Thank you, obx! It probably looks scuffed up for two reasons:

1) It is massively blown up.

2) It is scuffed up.

You may! However, I do not have a pin vice/hobby drill, and unfortunately don't have the funds to purchase one at the moment. Also, I don't really do enough mods that would require a pin vice to merit buying one.

Thank you again for your help!

Very good! Although a minifig cant hold it it still is awesome!

Thanks, sarge. Also, thank you for your help in identifying this weapon :-)

And thank you, too, kaboom. The fig can hold it forward, but it is then at a 45 degree angle to the fig's body, and rather ugly.

Cool. I think that I should have one of these on my desk, just to remind me not to ask for bullpup BA.

I love M21s.
What, was that supposed to be funny, or what?
I don't do funny. Ever. So go ahead, have your funny signatures, whilst I, for one, will keep it simple.

Dude, Brickfan. That is awesome. It's beat up but pretty cool. You should try a FAMAS next time you're bored:D I'd love to try a mod like that with help from you.

The Steyr AUG. Thought it was pretty obvious, considering it was in the title.

Remember kids, bley and dark grey can look good together so long as you don't mix them up randomly.

This would be easy to make minifig compatible. All you have to do is make a removable magazine, which I will attempt, or I'll cut the mag off and leave it.

To me it looks like an ultra-short L86.
This isn't a bad mod per se, but as you said, it can't be used by minifigs. I guess it's good at leas for armoury shots.
