I was very interested in these rifles when they first came out, that interest cooled, but now I'm coming back around. The color options and revised safety help, as does Steyr ruining the AUG.
One of the things I'm trying to wrap my head around is optics. With the raised rail, my first thought is that I'd want a very low optic. I know all the initial reviewers got copies of these with NF LVPOs, and some guys are using AR height stuff, but I'm not sure how good the cheek weld is with some of the configurations I'm seeing. My second thought is, I think I'd prefer an ACOG of some flavor on one of these, but I don't know which direction I'd go. The characteristics of the TA-33 seem good, but I've never handled one, and it's AR height. The TA-50 is the only real magnified ACOG available in a low mount, but there's basically zero information out there about these. I do have a spare Aimpoint PRO and a LT low mount if I wanted to go that route, but I like the idea of something magnified. How many of you have gone through trial and error with optics on these, and how many of you love your current configuration? |

Well, I've done all of that, and he's my take: Started with the TA50 ACOG, high version, with a high Bobro mount, and it was perfect. Cowitnessed with iron sights through the scope channel, and that was super cool. I liked the scope so much that I needed to move it to one of my other favorite rifles, so then I needed a new optic for the VHS2. I tried the TA11 ACOG. I liked that the enhanced magnification and FOV made for better longer range use, as this rifle is super accurate. But then, I realized that one of my AR10s needed an optic, and the TA11 was needed for that. Next was the low mounted red dot plus EoTech magnifier in a low Arisaka mount. That was cool, but also I just didn't like it. Too low, not very good clarity, just wasn't for me. Then I was doing some scope jockeying, and realized that my PLXC didn't have a home. I tried it on this rifle in a standard AR height mount and liked it, but wanted a lower mount. Got the ADM Recon low mount (1.15" centerline) and it was perfect. I'm very happy with this setup now. On this rifle, I like the TA50 ACOG and the PLXC both very much, but in different ways. Both are good options, depending on your objectives. But if you like the idea of an ACOG, the TA50 is really excellent. |

You didn't find it too high? And about the TA50 itself, what do you think about the eye box and the FOV? Is the eye box more forgiving than a TA31? |

You didn't find it too high? And about the TA50 itself, what do you think about the eye box and the FOV? Is the eye box more forgiving than a TA31? Surprisingly, it did not feel all that high. I never found that it was uncomfortably high, but part of that is because the TA50 is quite forgiving with regards to the eye box. With the PLXC, I did not really like it in standard AR height, which was even lower than the TA50 was, but I do like the PLXC in the low mount. The TA50 is like a mini TA31. Slightly better eye relief, but overall it has a similar feel. |

I don’t own any bullpups but I’ve always wanted a FAMAS.
This rifle is probably way better and it kind of looks like one. I’m also a left handed shooter so left side eject is nice. Way less gas to the face than a suppressed AR15 I would guess. Did someone say something about a safety selector revision? If so how do I make sure I get that one from the factory? About to read into this thing more. Eta: looks like this is the one to get? The picture shows the updated safety selector. https://www.kygunco.com/product/springfield-armory-hl916556f-hellion-bullpup-5.56-nato-16-30rd-fde?utm_source=gun.deals&utm_medium=Product%20Feed&avad=211021_a3a342845 Are spare parts easy to find for these?

It may be silly. But the only real hurdle that stops me from going all in on the Hellion (I do own one). Like being my "go to". Is the lack of any spare parts. I've been know to have mutiples. But I won't buy one just to use it for scrap parts.

Really considering a Hellion purchase after I get back from this deployment (over a Mk12) due to the accuracy potential and general novelty - is the 20" really less mechanically accurate? I've seen varying results.
Furthermore - if the 20" is less accurate due to barrel whip/attachments: would the 18" be the happy midpoint? |

 Alright! Me and the 16 inch OD Green are headed to the range tomorrow! FINALLLLLLY! I'll report my findings. Gun has been thoroughly cleaned and lubed and I laser sighted the bore for windage and a bit of elevation. Unlike the pic, I dropped the spacer from the crappy Vortex to give me almost a perfect co-witness. This optic WILL change in the future. Likely to an Aimpoint. Can anyone please tell me what the short range zero settings and diopter numbers are for the Hellion at anywhere from 10 meters to 25 meters? I would really apprecaite it as I am a bit to drunk to find the thread on this subject at the moment. |

Woo Hoo!
I finally got to shoot mine today! This morning (when sober) I found the short range zero instructions on pages 5 to 7 seven of this thread. ( for anyone who needs it ) and they worked perfectly. I started with the 300 meter diopter at about 25 yards (I know) and got it just low of the target. Then switched to the 0 aperature and was actually able to dial it in to about 1.5 low at 25. Then I flipped to 1-2 and dialed it a teeny bit more. Then I was off to the races at 100. Like the AUG, this gun is a hitting machine at 100. I co-witnessed the shitty little red dot for 100 and had a blast shooting from the hoof like a man! This gun is almost as smooth as my old AR-180. It runs like a sewing machine! This gun BEGS for a good trigger pack!  Kinda went a bit wild and ran though a few more rounds than I intended.  I kinda want a grey 18 inch now. If they ever offer the other colors with other barrels. I really like this gun. NOTE: At the end of it all, I ran about 200 rounds in about 45 minutes. (possibly five or ten minutes shorter than that) This gun gets HOT at the trunion. The forend gets pretty warm but nothing crazy. It does cool off fairly quickly. |

The triggers are very much improved. Much lighter; still a bit of travel, but a far nicer two stage trigger. Well worth the $75 with return shipping. Www.triggerwork.net |

Bummer. Version 1.0 is a no-go. Too much friction in the wrong places, in relation to the reciver fit...
Probably going to have to send them the whole rifle now, rather than just the trigger pack. On the bright side, the JARD version looks to be very well made. Actuating the little nub that engages the transfer bar, with my thumb, is MUCH easier than the one on the OEM pack. Bodes well for the final product... |

Too bad I didn't get to play with it, using my BillSpringfield modified trigger pack for comparison. |
