I think the Limeys have their own version of Barret’s sniper rifle...

That’s not an assault rifle. This article is about the limeys and it says what rifle they are using.

The one I was thinking of was the SA80. And it’s a bullpup of the ar18, not the ar15. Appears I got the caliber wrong too. It’s a standard 556 nato cartridge. Now I just need to figure out what rifle I was thinking of that shot a tiny 20 caliber round. Pretty sure it was a bullpup style.
