Picked up a K&M 308 16 inch bullpup. With my can it's 33 inches. Can't wait to try it out with my thermal.

Came with custom serial number
Some other guy put a deposit on it to be built and never picked it up.

Comes from factory with a elf adjustable trigger which is sweet. Think this setup will come in handy can't wait to get my thermal back to try it out

The knock on bullpups has always been muzzle blast and trigger quality. The suppressor handles the first issue very nicely; how do you like the trigger?

elf trigger feels very nice and I will need to slap my trigger gauge on it to see if I need to adjust it. very clean break and no slop very impressed

Appears to be an awesome hog killer, easy to carry in the field I imagine. What's it weigh without thermal?

Dang. Heavier than I woulda guessed, but I'll bet the balance mitigates that a bit. Looks like hog poison to me.

1999.00 to order one 10 week build time. this one I got lucky on guy had is built special with ser # and couldn't come up with final payment so I snagged it. he wont do custom serial numbers anymore for that reason.

I worked strait with the owner of the company he answered every question and emailed me back within minutes.

http://kmarms.com/

you can go on his site and place a 100.00 deposit and get the build going and pay it out over the 10 weeks. very cool option. I am planning on going to the range today and will see how it preforms. will keep everyone posted.

Only bullpup I've ever shot was a bolt action .338 Lapua Mag. You had to completely remove your cheek from the stock to cycle the damn thing. It shot just fine though, and we tinged steel at a mile with it.

This looks much better, but there's a 100% chance I wouldn't shoot it left handed. trout

Nice gun, you'll need to report back how you like it.

I bought a Keltec RFB to use as my "ridin' in the Pioneer lookin' for hogs gun". Every man needs one of those... smile


My M&P-10 with the Cyclone is just too dang long and heavy to get in/out with, in any kind of a rush. RFB is a neat rifle, compact, but GD it's loud w/o a suppressor. The front ejection is a little different and should cycle sub's given the short throw and built-in adj. gas system. I've got the suppressor ordered you see in my tagline and will order either the current or soon to be here Flir/Armasight Thermosight Pro 50 (if priced right). Really like my XQ50, but it would be a bit big on the RFB I think.

I also looked at a Tavor in .308, but couldn't get one even close to the $1,250 I paid for the RFB.

looked at keltec was just worried about it cycling good. so far no issues with this setup. groups ar 1 inch at 100 which is all I need for hogs and what not. my thermal is off to trijicon when it gets back ill be using it for this setup. also ordered some prime 175 gr 308 ammo to test.

175 gr prime ammo... 100 yards with a crappy 3x9 optic... Mounted my reap ir on it after I liked the group from prime. Good enough for pig time
