Why do only pistols have the magazine in the grip? Isn't it a cheap way to get a longer barrel without needing bullpup designs?
Why do only pistols have the magazine in the grip...

Because rifle length cartridges are too long , the magazine well would be gigantic and getting a good grip wouldn't be possible, which would negatively affect your marksmanship
But of course you knew that, what a waste of a thread, I can't believe I took the time to reply to this
My wife left me
Jonathan Perry
notice the angle of the mag vs grip angle vs tapered cartridges
Anthony Watson
>He thinks you can fit a full-length rifle cartridge in a pistol grip
Either you're a dumbass or you have andre the giant sized hands
Ethan Gomez
I'm sorry to hear that user. You'll make it through.
Matthew Campbell
What prevents the magazines from sticking out of the grip? As long as the magazine well/grip is long enough to cover the hand, it should function well enough.
Jayden Harris
Youre right. This is why ar pistol carbines are not optimal. But since everyone knows ars. They just accept its ergonomics.
James King
Oliver Lopez
why can't we just compress the powder and shorten cartridges? it's not like we fill them up to the brim to begin with anyways
Carter Sullivan
Because you would get a breach explosion dumb fuck, and because you decided in your infinite wisdom to place the magazine in the pistol grip, the breach is located directly above and in front of your hand, guess what that means for you?
You really are a specimen
Aaron Hughes
holy shit are you baiting or are you really this stupid
you can make it as long as you want but most people don't have 40 inch long hands so its width is limited to how wide a person's grip is
god dammit
Julian Phillips
So your idea to get rifle cartridges to fit inside a pistol grip is to make them shorter...
Congratulations you've just invented the FN Five-Seven
Good for you numbnuts
Julian Bailey
jeez the negativity is palpable
Lucas Murphy
your idea is retarded, it's nothing personal
Jonathan Young
No, just no love lost for morons who don't understand the concept of Google.
Jace Bennett
You may not like it. But this is what peak performance looks like.
Brandon Butler
Careful how fast you move with that thing shoulderd. Goddamn rudder on the front of the gun might make lateral movements a bit difficult.
Colton Brown
So with five-seven style bullets then . What's the downside?
Anthony Moore
It's been tried, but rifle rounds are too long to be comfortably contained in a pistol grip, and trying to just do it anyway leads to some awful fucking ergonomics.
nobody makes special chode rounds just to facilitate making intermediate power rifles with pistol grip magazines because that's stupid.
Henry Harris
meanwhile in Norway
Ian Morales
Look up the MP7
Ryder Williams
You have to pul the first one out and move the other one forward. And the cartridge is absolute shit-tier
Lucas Rogers
What about tilting the bullets, or even having them vertically stored?
Jason Baker
nice trips, but you probably shouldn't stack spitzer rounds ass to mouth for reasons that should be obvious
Jayden Gonzalez
That sucks, user. Getting mad at obvious troll threads is not the answer though, just try not to drink too much and maybe start lifting weights if you're not already.
Jason Taylor
I think what he's trying to say is why not have the grip and the magazine in the same location on the frame of the gun, but have the mag well tilted at like 30 degrees to either side. Sorta like a side feed mag. That way you can keep the grip small and benefit from longer barrel
Julian Sanders
Why? What's the mode of failure? Bullets don't usually go off inside a magazine, do they?
No, not at all.
