    It doesn't look particularly high for a bullpup.

    Nice review SAM. I kinda like it... Is the muzzle threaded for a mod'?

    Yes it is, but the FSB on this system is very good! Scope height is 3.25 inches, using a 20mm riser and low mounts!

    The general idea of the rifle I like, I did consider something similier when making my bullpup, but ended up using wooden stock due to ease of making it.
    BUT, the scope height is due to design cockup, I'm stuck with a 2 1/2" scope height due to using a mk3 base, and though I'd like it lower it's not to bad, Evenix could have used a better mag and block, say like the HW100 and ended up with a much better scope height than 3 1/4".

    Fugly yes!

    However, I can vouch for the basic system under the meccano!

    I just sold on my Prestige Black Kat which has the Evanix action, barrel and shroud.

    Moley is correct - it's accurate shot on shot at 40yds. It's quiet - especially with the addition of a SAK or Weihrauch silencer - and its reliable!

    If you can cope with the 'plug' exterior and unusual handling/feel of the Storm, I think you would be pleasantly surprised.

    Maybe its just me, but I think the action looks like my old hatsan at44 that I had.

    Nice concise review,
    I find it a shame that these firms build a bullpup but can't work out how to mount the bolt/sidelever above the fwd trigger & pistol grip, rather they expect you to reach back somewhere by your ear to cock it, which to me is simply not acceptable.

    I agree it would probably make a very nice NV dedicated outfit.

    It's reasonable for a Bullpup. I do feel however that the manufacturers have missed a trick as they could have easily lowered the front rail section, which would IMO provide a better visual balance.
    I would buy one just to modify it even more.

    Not taken it out of the frame yet. Barrel is fully shrouded and painted, so is the frame, so no problem drying!
