N/A Whats the shortest?

I'll take a quick stab at some bullpups currently available in the USA... a few come to mind:
*EDgun Leyla - 23.5'' (limited quantity)
AirMaks Arms Krait / Krait Lite (available soon) - 23.8''
AGT Uragan 2 Compact - 24.4''
Taipan Veteran Shorty - 25''
FX Impact Compact - 25''
*EDgun Leshiy 2 Short - 25.5''
BRK Brocock Ghost Carbine - 26''
FX Wildcat - 26.5''
Kalibrgun Cricket 2 Tactical - 26.8''
*Truly functional shroud
Pretty sure the Diana/Snowpeak Skyhawk would qualify, but I can't locate it.

P35 is 26.5748" 5.2lbs
The nice part about the P35/P15/Skyhawk is the shroud can be extended and you can use aftermarket baffles or hair curlers to reduce the noise.
First photo is the factory baffle length. Second photo is with a 3d printed baffle inside, and obviously a DonnyFL on.

I didn't realize it was that long compared to the others. The extra 2" or more on a very short rifle is a big difference compared to 34" to 36" on a longer one.

Balistas website says 600mm for Vet Short. Which would make it about 23.6inches.
I added a slightly longer barrel to my Short but I remember it was shockingly short as-issued.

My compact taipan comes in slightly less than 25 inches, but I have a plenum extension on mine. W/O the plenum, looks like 24”

Wow, some of these are much shorter than I thought. Most need a mod added, so that's going to bring them up to the 28" +/- AOL range.

Krale carries the empire XS, not sure on the other two. I guess that'd be more of an export/drop ship though.

Are there any carbine rifles in the 36" range that come functional shrouded? Am I just a dreamer? Lol

It’s a shame that Taipan quit making the Veteran shorty. In my opinion, it’s the best out there. 23 1/2 inches long, super quiet without a mod, anti double feed, good shot count and power, very accurate, super nice trigger and extremely well made.

Kalibrgun Cricket Mini Carbine, 31" OAL with effective OEM shroud. The FX Ranchero in carbine stock is close to that.
