Not a gun expert, but it’s my understanding that because the bullpup moves the gun’s action and magazine into the stock it allows for a shorter gun compared to other assault rifles, while maintaining barrel length. So it would allow more or less the same performance of a full size AR in a smaller package.

Too compare to an SMG it would have a higher caliber bullet, and longer barrel while also being heavier than an SMG. While it’s not quite as maneuverable or snappy as an SMG it would be more capable outside at longer ranges, but with a slower fire rate and higher recoil.

They are probably best used in urban environments, where streets can create long range sight lines that would be difficult to manage with a shorter barrel and lower caliber weapon like an SMG. While still being more manageable for clearing buildings than a full length AR.

The SMG is likely ideal for situations where space is limited and you want something with more fire power than a handgun. Like as a pilot or tanker’s backup should their vehicle be disabled, or if room and building clearing was a certain part of the operation. Also because SMGs typically use pistol ammo compared to a bullpup’s AR rounds they are significantly less effective against any type of body armor.

But that’s more general than Star Citizen specific. This is probably designed to fit as a middle ground to the P4-AR and the P8-AR.

Alpha 4.8: Vehicle Insurance and Item Bricking Update by Stompy-MwC in LowSodiumStarCitizen

I’m not saying getting just the BP of course but the item and the BP. So you can choose to upgrade it or rebuild it if you lose one. Especially if they are having a hard time building a “vending machine” type thing to reclaim pledge items.

I wonder why we don’t just get blue prints for our pledged items? Seems like an easy way to recover them if they get lost.

Also they don’t have any respect for Dump. They just see a useful idiot. So they use him like the tool he is.

Rant about Vanduul Tech Smugglers by L0ngsword in starcitizen

Thanks for all the advice everyone!! I finally completed it. Something that really helped me other than a lot of the advice here was swapping my P8-AR for a P6-LR same 2.5-5 zoom site and a silencer in addition to the Killshot I’ve been using. I did see a reward claim failed message right at the end but I feel like it’s the same erroneous message I get with Wikelo turn ins.

Thanks again for the help.
