Stupid question probably, but what is that under "Bushmaster" on the rollmarkof my xm15-e2s?  Its the gun looking thing on the snake itself right under the "Bushmaster" name.  Is it supposed to be a bullpup or something?  Did Bushy start with bullpups?  Anyone else wondered this........I am prepared to be the only idiot here....

It's the Gwinn Armpistol from the late 70's - the 'roots' of Bushmaster.

Thanks, I've also been wondering about that.

I recognized it as a bullpup shape but had no clue as to its significance.
