I don’t know how I missed this for 6 months but someone built a Bullpup BRN-180.
You can find the original post here!
Does someone have an account on that forum? If so shoot him a message for me and send him here, we need to chat.
He used an electronic trigger with a solenoid to actuate the “regular” trigger.
He has since moved the battery to the rear of the gun.
After seeing this I want to do the same thing and it might just end up bringing my SA-80 airsoft conversion back from the dead.
Airsoft lower with the guts out of a BRN-180 upper.

The internals look very 180ish it’s only down for a second, but I thought y’all would find this interesting.
May I suggest Steve Raw’s tome, “The Last Enfield”, which gives the heads-up of the managerial clusters at Enfield, aided and abetted by the UK government.
No wonder it took such a long time before the SA80 became fully, 100% operational – which it has been for a very long time.
The ‘problem’ is that the many old detractors are still reviling it for no good reason – other than they never bothered to do further research on the gun.
i have a friend who is a goon (somethingawful forum poster), i’ll see if he still has his account, leave that guy a message pointing him your way rick.
