srbrown911 0 Posted October 21, 2010 Report Share Posted October 21, 2010 Anybody ever see the Mosin Nagant bullpup stock from www.cbrps.com ? Center Balanced Rifle Systems makes it and it is pretty sweet. Looks like a James Bond sniper or something. Anyone have one? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
chevyman097 2,579 Posted October 21, 2010 Report Share Posted October 21, 2010 Mosin Nagant and bullpup should never be used in the same sentence. 9 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
DrThunder88 912 Posted October 21, 2010 Report Share Posted October 21, 2010 I've seen pictures of it. Overall I'm not impressed with it from an observer's standpoint. I'm as big a fan of firearm innovation as anyone, but this one's leaving me kind of cold. The ergonomics of working the bolt especially seem uncomfortable at best. It does look like something out of James Bond. Sadly, it looks most like a low-polygon model from the N64 GoldenEye007 game! Still, this thread may be better suited to the "Other Rifles" forum. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
echoside190 127 Posted October 21, 2010 Report Share Posted October 21, 2010 I've handled one and it was shoddy looking to say the least. The material was kinda odd in texture and half of it looked to be dremeled rather than milled... The bolt cover where you get your cheek weld looked to me like a black plastic pipe cut in half and put onto it with a few screws and roll pins so it could flip open to cycle the weapon. The original plan was to fix it up and make it into a decent looking stock but it was beyond messing with it IMO. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

jimdigriz 580 Posted October 21, 2010 Report Share Posted October 21, 2010 One word: KA-BOOM They've been known to happen on Mosins from time to time. I want my face to be far away from the action. (Besides, working the bolt from that angle would seem cumbrous). 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
volkov 318 Posted October 21, 2010 Report Share Posted October 21, 2010 worst... design... ever... I could rant on an on about what an abomination it is but it still wouldn't fully vent my frustration. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
self_inflicted 70 Posted October 22, 2010 Report Share Posted October 22, 2010 (edited) What Echo said was the truth. Between me and him we looked over a CBRPS 91/30 bullpup stock (gag idea gone bad). The stock was just a POS that would have required a lot of work to make functional. If you really want to get into a cheap, fun, and halfway decent bullpup, just buy a AK bullpup already built. Granted you will have to do some work on it to get it going good, but its far better than a 91/30 bullpup. Plus the AK bullpup only runs at around 450-480 complete or 180 for the kit (centerfire), where's the CBRPS stock is 280. I'd rather spend a bit more and get the AK myself, at least your dignity will be intact with that one...

dobravery 49 Posted October 25, 2010 Report Share Posted October 25, 2010 It does look like something out of James Bond. Sadly, it looks most like a low-polygon model from the N64 GoldenEye007 game! That game was awesome. But yeah, what good is the close quarter compactness of the bullpup, when you have to cycle probably the slowest bolt action there is. I do love Mosins though. I'd love a polymer thumb-hole stock myself. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
dobravery 49 Posted October 25, 2010 Report Share Posted October 25, 2010 Forgot to mention that as if the Mosin trigger wasn't bad enough, but to then link it forward. . . Having said that, looking at their products, the 'white' guns look friggin awesome. But of all their examples, I'd rather love to do a .223 Saiga with AR mag adapter bullpup. That would defeat the whole rocking a mag forward into the pistol grip issue that screams at me with the AK's. Interesting web-site. Thanks for posting it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

poolingmyignorance 2,191 Posted March 6, 2012 Report Share Posted March 6, 2012 Looks interesting, but in all reality as far as terms of useablity: that shit aint worth the plastic it's molded from. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
preparehandbook 326 Posted March 6, 2012 Report Share Posted March 6, 2012 One word: KA-BOOM They've been known to happen on Mosins from time to time. I want my face to be far away from the action. (Besides, working the bolt from that angle would seem cumbrous). Mosin kabooms are pretty rare and I've never heard of one injuring the shooter, but it only takes one, especially next to your face. That being said I wouldn't shoot any bullpup that didn't have some sort of shield to assure safety in the event a kaboom occured, a deflection plate as some bullpups have or at least a few layers of kevlar face saver.

preparehandbook 326 Posted March 7, 2012 Report Share Posted March 7, 2012 I'm guessing the obrez probably has ballistics pretty close to a .30 carbine, maybe a little better. Though the tumbling unstabilized round should transfer energy well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
