    I've seen them. They've been out for a while. Most of the reviews that I have read have said that it isn't very good. The grip shape is terrible and it isn't very reliable.

    Not on the roster, either. I thought someone was going to submit it, but I guess not.

    If they could get 'em reliable, I'd still do an SBR with it.

    Not sure I would want any gun where you have to reach in front of the muzzle to clear a failure. Especially a .22

    I really don't get it. Seems far wider and more uncomfortable than a lot of the other choices out there.

    Offtopic slightly, but this guy also did the epic zip gun fail video also did the following (which is good for a laugh even though anyone who knows anything about magazines knows it's fake):

    "600 Round Assault Clip" (bunch of GLOCK magazines taped together, looks to be over ten feet long):

    Makes me wonder how many people saw that and thought you could actually tape magazines together like that and have a functional magazine

    MattV2099 may have fixed the Zip Gun. He's going to post a test video shortly.

    Basically the crappy trigger of a bullpup, the looks and ergonomics of a VHS tape, you have to muzzle F yourself to charge it, crappy fixed molded sights, unreachable safety, tiny useless rail, the reliability of a Yugo and it's "greatest" feature, that it can provide a worthless less powerful rail attatched backup gun to a rifle requires NFA paperwork. I'm fairly open minded and love to see innovative firearms, even if they aren't all that practical , but this looks like a dozen stupid ideas all molded together.
