308 Forward Ejecting Bullpup

bigfutz · Dec 15, 2012

Anyone seen this one? What does forward ejecting mean, other than the obvious? Where would the spent case come out?

comes out a tube over or under the bbl, like where an AK piston rod is.

some one had one last year at shootzenfest. he said one problem is a case can be spit out in front of a bullet.

i dont think it was a bullpup but it was forward ejecting.

I think I hve seen this one before or something similar. It should have an ejection tube either above or below the barrel. The one I saw had it above and would push the empties forward out of the tube. I thought it was odd and would seem distracting, but it seems to function ok. Although, I now wonder how it would be while firing upwards...

ok, not too common an occurance- forgive me, my mind wanders! :mrgreen:

Edit: Tigerstripe beat me, I am the typing slowness! :lol:

Here's a link to an overview of the gun, and shows him firing it at the end. It shows where the brass is ejected, but it appears to me that only about half of the empties come out...

I think there is room in the ejection tube for more than one shell. I believe if the firearm was tilted down a little more then you would see a 1:1 ratio of rounds fired to shells ejected.

The manual is located here: https://www.google.com/url?sa=t&rct...1sQLXH0Kv9OXQ&bvm=bv.1355325884,d.eWU&cad=rja

Page 21/22 gives the description of the mechanics involved and has pictures.

That's a KelTec RFB. I've been trying to find one ever since they were released. Here a good source for information. http://www.thektog.org/forum/f91/
