That's a nice fat handle you got there.

Analysis:
It's fully-automatic, bullpup, with an ejector port that would eject spent casings over the elbow of a right-handed shooter (or maybe an ambidextrous side-select port), but with a forward charging handle, further improving ergonomics. It has what seems to be a threaded barrel (with a removable muzzle-brake attached), chambered in (judging by the proportions) either 5.56mm, 7.62x39mm, or maybe both (meaning it has a multi-caliber breach and multiple barrel variants like the ARAK-21 XRS). The fact that is has (what seem to be) floating-point optics, instead of traditional ironsights, is great for target acquisition, and likely has an Internal Laser Module somewhere as well (judging from the mysterious switch on the grip of the forward part of the receiver). It's sleek, minimalistic, and yet seems extremely comfortable.

Overall, it's a solid gun that I'd buy if you started selling it IRL (which you can, since it's obviously not an energy weapon, meaning you can design the internals and make it actually work). It's compact, but not so compact that it's uncomfortable, its barrel is definitely over 18' inches (meaning you wouldn't need to go through all the paperwork to make it an SBR), and if you integrated a picatinny rail into the top of the gun in-between the two optics as grooves (as so it wouldn't interfere with the FPOs), people could attach their own optics to it (which is totally necessary). If floating-point optics would bump-up the production cost too much, flip-up ironsights would also work (but a more expensive model with FLOs would be a good idea, maybe have the Internal Laser Module exclusive to this "Elite" model as well). One suggestions though: make the stock-pad thicker, since it would start to hurt to shoot after a while with the ~0.75' inch stock-pad it currently has. That's the only major design problem I can see, and other than that, it's a great gun.

Anyways, please, PLEASE design the internals and get someone to start manufacturing this! I'm sure that it would be, with a few modifications, a HUGE success. Out of all of your designs, this is not only the one that I want to see IRL the most, but also the most likely to, because it's well designed (as usual), simple, practical, and would be relatively easy to make today.

Hi Deuce77, thanks for the comment! I've just uploaded a new render so you can check the final. I'll probably do another variant on top that one as well. As you've already noticed that's my the most conventional design so far. Even though this version just has iron-sights that unibody design is pretty versatile. On example there is space inside body for integrated shotgun or launcher if you choose that option. Additional picantiny rail serves for other attachments like flashlight etc. Glad you like it so much, I was definitely enjoying reading it!

hmm... looks good, full automatic assault rifle, possibly multiple firing modes, length seems alright for good holding... i very much like the look of the thing
