Simply put, it’s when your barrel starts right by your ear. Trust me, your ear will let you know you’re shooting a bullpup.

Another dumb question. What does the length offer? I was looking for the long version in whatever I shop for but don't know why other than looks and the thought it might have better accuracy?

If you want to bridge the gap between a long traditional rifle and a little club bullpup, look at the Brocock line of guns. Wonderful guns. My buddy has one. Handles great offhand and lays nicely in the bags. I cannot believe the semi bullpup isn’t more popular. I have a couple guns that when they go down the road, a Brocock will be replacing them.

There are also the semi pups from Zbroia, Vulcan & Cricket (mini-carbine).
I want to try one. Probably Zbroia due to anti double feed & Charlie's (Georgia Airguns) reputation.

All good choices if you want something in the middle. Then you just have to decide bottle or tube. All good guns though.

Bullpups are great to shoot because they give you the advantage of a longer barrel in a shorter package. Plus traditional rifles put a lot of weight forward on the rifle so shooting offhand becomes less stable and feels heavier. Of course that's a moot point if you only shoot off a rest or table.
That being said, while I do prefer bullpups, (although I did own a hn1000x that I primarily shot off a bipod, seated at the range) I prefer my bullpups with cocking levers towards the center, not the rear. I owned a taipan but I sold it because it's awkward cocking a lever by your face. It's just not comfortable for me manipulating it with the way it was positioned towards the rear. AGT bullpups as I remember have side cocking levers, as well as FX stuff and both are very accurate. I had AGT Vulcan gen 1 which was accurate and felt very sturdy and solid but a little on the heavy side. Fx stuff is always great, but they don't feel as robust as the eastern European stuff like edguns or AGT but I think it's cuz the ones I've handled usually had wood stocks compared to fx who seem to favor the synthetic stocks.

I am late to the show ,but , NO. I have had both guns , It is no contest between them. If you have the coin , the Vet will deliver , get a .25 long - adjustable power from 20-60 FPE out of the box. Beefy , solid , reliable.

Good thing I didn’t see that one for $949. You would be starting another topic. Who bought that Brocock Sniper.

I watch a lot of his reviews and like his format. Very informative but everything looks good to me when he tests it.

I know of a very reputable seller who has recently purchased his $999.00 22 Brocock Compatto still as new who purchased it as a gift that never was given willing to take $700.

All 3 of my 177, 22 and 25 Taipan Veterans are the shortys and would highly recommend them. I did not feel any need to buy duplicates for spares for these specific guns like I did for all my duplicate and triplicate Taipan Mutants which have all been proven to be reliable and trouble free so I just set them doubles and triples all for different power levels.
My Kaliburgun Cricket shortys with skeleton stock feels lighter though. Another good recommendation with higher capacity magazines and looks a little more appealing to the eyes IMHO.
