The CR-21 was a private effort to create a new rifle for the South African military in the 1990s. Bullpup designs were all the rage at the time (Austria has the AUG, France had the FAMAS, the UK had the SA80, etc), and so a company called Lyttelton Engineering Works (now part of Denel Land Systems) created a bullpup conversion design for the South African R4 (Galil). It was given a very fluid, futuristic look, and equipped with a fiber optic optic without any iron sights. The action and magazines remained original R4/Galil, however
Yeah I gotcha. I was just trying to clarify that I was talking about the genre then and wasn’t saying that the Alien franchise was unoriginal.
Love the first few. Definitely agree with you on the anesthetic. Was just saying District 9 is a bit more original than most movies in the alien genre (not the Alien franchise).
Man I feel like I’m just making things less clear! Haha
Nah, you’re loud and clear. I’m gonna check out District 9. I appreciate the suggestion.
