Are you looking more for fun or function? Is length a factor? A huge perk of the bullpup design in 5.56x45 is that you get to take advantage of the extra barrel length. So if that's what you want you may want to look at something like the bushmaster M17S. Ugly as sin but all business and 21.5 inch barrel in a rifle about the size of a carbine-length AR-15. Steyr AUG would be another possibility. Otherwise I agree with the Tavor option, a little lighter and much more ergonomic.

*not to say that the Tavor won't keep up, but that extra barrel really does make a difference.
