I like bullpups. I used to hate the things, but my mom collects 'em, and I was gradually won over. I like how they balance, personally; they're VERY fast getting on-target, and the recoil is so straight back (thanks to the breech being between, rather than in front of, the support structure of the firing hand and strong-side shoulder) that you can keep a 4x scope on target all the way through the recoil impulse. A bullpup .308 would be interesting; the Israelis have supposedly fielded one based on the M-14 platform, though personally I'd rather see an FAL conversion.
