"Pax Americana is a philosophy. Hardly an empire.
Making sure other people play nice and dont kill each other (and us)
off in job lots is hardly empire building, particularly when you give
them self determination under "play nice" rules.

Think of it as having your older brother knock the **** out of you
for torturing the cat." Gunner

Ha.

Looks like a southpaw would get some brass down his throat if he shot
with his mouth open.

Like if he was panting after running.

I says it can be operated with either hand, looks like a southpaw
would have brass bouncing off his cheek, a common problem with
bullpups. The Frog Bugle can be quickly modified to lefthand
operation by field stripping and reassembling it differently.

I've always wanted to build a bullpup from an FAL receiver.

--It's a cultural thing over there; if you wipe your ass with your
right hand you're shunned. Not a whole lot of sympathy for lefties, heh.
No surprise it turns up in the design of weapons. Unfortunately there's a
lot of this bias in other nation's weapon designs too; unfortunate, as it
now looks like righties and lefties share the planet 50-50. We'd have a
military advantage if we designed ambidextrous weapons.
