If that lever was shorter, you could probably get a faster fire rate.

Maybe the same idea should be implemented for a 5.56 platform.

Bruh. The Owen Gun was designed by a teen before WW2.

The owen gun is an amazing piece of history and is not ugly. it was based on the sten gun and it was made with cheap components. Like OP said, it was made by a teen with limited knowledge and was tinkering with firearms.
