I recently discovered the Bond Arms Bullpup 9.
The overall length of the pistol keeps it in the sub compact catagory. However, the barrel length is closer to a compact rather than a sub compact. This means the increased power and accuracy that come with a longer barrel and the ability to chamber cartriges as large as .45ACP.
In 2016 Bond Arms acquired Boberg Arms, including their handgun designs and patents.
Upon inspecting the design they identified a number of design flaws and be gan working to correct them.
After about a year and a half they got the gun working beautifully. They also identified the one problem they couldn't fix and figured out how to avoid it. This problem was that most small arms don't pull the cartridges backwards.
Consequently, many manufacturers or loadings are weakly or inconsistantly crimped, while others are crimped well beyond the threshold required to make the gun function reliably and smoothly.
Bond Arms posts an extensive list on their website of the amunition currently known to work reliably with the gun.
After about a year and a half they released the Bullpup9, the 9mm version of the design. As of early in 2018 the company president said they planned on releasing the .45ACP version and a .380 version.
