In 1902, a British engineer created something revolutionary - a bullpup rifle configuration decades before it became mainstream.
But there's a problem: almost nobody knows about it.
Tomorrow we're diving into:
✓ The Thorneycroft 1902 prototype
✓ Why the trigger system was so complex
✓ The SREM I WWII sniper experiment
✓ Engineering lessons for modern designs
Was this innovation simply ahead of its time? Or were the compromises too great? Drop a 🔧 if you're ready for this engineering breakdown!
