This video from Armament Research Services (ARES) delves into the British Thorpe EM-1, a post-WWII bullpup rifle development. It highlights the EM-1's ambitious goal of replacing both infantry rifles and submachine guns, its roller-locked operating system (akin to the German Gerat 06 but with key differences), long recoil gas piston, and the .280 British cartridge. The analysis notes its innovative automatic bolt-chambering mechanism upon magazine insertion but also points out its overly complex design, which led to its discontinuation in favor of the simpler EM-2 for NATO trials.
