Following the\u00a0First Intifada\u00a0, an almost entirely urban conflict where conventional\u00a0assault rifles\u00a0proved too long and crippling, the need for a new weapon arose.\u00a0Shortening the barrel length decreases the range of the weapon, and increases the sound and visual nuisance of the shot.\u00a0This is why a bullpup\u00a0weapon\u00a0, which makes it possible to reduce the total length while keeping a suitable length of the barrel, is chosen\u00a0^{1<\/sup>\u00a0.<\/span><\/p>\n}
