The Faxon Firearms ARAK-21 (.223/5.56x45mm NATO-length) and ARAK-31 (.308/7.62x51mm NATO-length) are gas-piston designs, requiring no buffer spring/tube extensions. These designs auto-load, within the confines of the Upper Receiver-Barrel Assembly ---

Accordingly, either represents a good candidate for incorporating within a short, compact Bullpup rifle.
Picture this winning combo: A compact, highly-efficient Bullpup rifle configuration, chambered for the short, highly-efficient 6.5mm Grendel cartridge!
NOTE: I found the accompanying photo to the Faxon Firearms Facebook Page, dated October 15, 2014 (Link given in my Reply #8, above), somewhat confusing. I therefore elected to use a similar image of a Bullpup Lower, sans an upper, found on the Internet (See my Reply #2, above).
