The forward charging handle would be more of a comfort thing than anything else. Instead of releasing your grip and reaching behind the bolt to charge the round, about 16", you would just lift your forward hand up a little to charge it.
A forward charging handle is almost necessary on a bullpup but no so much on an AR platform. Again is more of a comfort thing or a speed thing because its closer to the forward hand.
I am posting this crapy picture because you wanted it so please no comments on the crapy picture but comment all you want on the simple, yet completely reliable and functional forward charging handle.
I also think I will do an internal forward charging handle that fits the bullpup exclusively.
