FWIW, IIRC, AFAIK, FTMP, IANAL. YMMV.

Ok, I give up.

Where is the ejection port? Where do the spent casings fly out of that rifle?

They slide down a tube above the barrel and fall out the front. Watch near the end of the youtube video, above.

Ok, I see now. Should have watched the video I guess.

Thanks.

Now, how reliable is a system like that going to be? I have also been tempted by Bullpup designs but never given in an bought one, not yet anyway.

That's a couple of pounds heavier than an M4 (5.5lbs unloaded), but that extra weight will be appreciated when firing 7.62 NATO.

do the spent shells fall out right in front of the barrel? What happens if a shell falls out as a round is being fired?

From the pictures, it looks like they're ejected well behind the muzzle. I suppose you might hit a bit of brass if you were firing full auto and pointed almost straight down, but otherwise I don't see a reason to be concerned.

Disclaimer: I don't actually know anything about this gun that isn't from the those few pics at the top of the thread.
