Question on the FN200/ Mk20 casing ejection

[kye 0]

Hello all

Given that this weapon is a bullpup platform, why are the casing ejected from the from of the weapon, when the magazine is in the rear? Design feature or oversight? The case ejects as the round fires so it isn't like it travels up the inside of the weapon and then out of the ejection port.

It doesn't make much sense to me.

Thanks.

It's not that hard mate to look a bit:

Case closed I guess.

That is an interesting way of doing things! I'll be reading up on that!

P90 also ejects casings out the front, makes the weapons ambidextrous and less likely to chuck a casing down your top..

No, the P90 ejects out of the bottom rear.
