Yep...more of a carbine than a rifle. Good for building to building fighting, but, as you say, not the best option for traditional warfare, e.g., Afghanistan, which could be part of what the IDF might face in terrain type.

What do you say, thefactor?

Both the Brits and the French use a bullpup design. The FAMAS and SA80/L85 models.

What’s the effective point target range on that thing? Can’t be more than a few hundred yeards. Not good for open fighting. Thankfully the AK is terrible as well in that arena.
