From what I read of the RFB, it's essentially an updated version of the FAL bullpup design. So, there again, it's a rehash. And lets not forget about the Ruger LCP and the Kel-Tec P-9/11/32. Essentially the same design but with the Ruger medallion all over it.
And if there was one gun manufacturer that espouses the copy-cat nature currently en vogue, it has to be Taurus. Between copying S&W and Beretta, they wrote the book on the subject.
How do you compromise with someone when their idea of compromise is to give them what THEY want?

Political correctness is a doctrine, fostered by a delusional, illogical minority, and rabidly promoted by an unscrupulous mainstream media, which holds forth the proposition that it is entirely possible to pick up a turd by the clean end.
Okay, now that it's established that most "new" guns are copies of older guns, just updated, does anyone have any ideas on what a totally "original" gun would be like?
There's only so much that can be done with a design that fits human contours.
Would the new gun have to fire a different type of projectile (like plasma, electric charge, sonic, etc.), or be a completely different design that fits the hand/shouler in a different way?
What would a totally original gun be?
Shotguns and big bores are where a lot of
new and wild ideas are coming. Like our
wildcats and 12GA FH stuff.Ed
Well, there's the new Armalite-AR24...
...wait, that's a copy of the Cz75...
...which is a reiteration of the Browning hi-power...
...which came out in 1935...
...o.k., I think I see where you're coming from.
