Let’s fucking go. I love the marsupial so much for suppressed shooting and i’m so glad to have a modernized version.

Ooo, is that pic rail high enough up to work with the Phantom Pup? https://guncadindex.com/detail/PhantomPupV1:0

It'll need to use the Dissent back plate/stock option to hold the spring in but it looks like it fits with all the FM15 options otherwise. Here's some pics. ~~It'll be an SBR with a 16.5" bbl since the OAL is 24.5" but that's easy enough to fix.~~

edit: i forgot OAL is with stock extended

[–] TheShittinator 5 points 1 month ago* (last edited 1 month ago) (1 children)

OAL is measured with the stock extended, no?

EDIT: This is super exciting though, means the bullpup I've been planning for like a year is about to get a shit ton more printable.

The Phantom Pup assembly manual has OAL with a 16“ barrel at 26“ with the stock extended. Obviously I don’t know how long the receiver on the Quokka is but I‘d be surprised if it was that much shorter than the FM-15.

Dude I am stoked by this development, ever since the FM-15 upper prices got hiked I have been holding out for someone to make exactly this possible.

I have a feeling this might turn into my favorite printed gun since the SF5.

Oh right I forgot it's measured with the stock extended! It should be the same lengths as the FM 15 upper

Can someone please explain what this is?
