Get the AUG A3 if you can, the A3 M1's have a little narrower aftermarket and the top rails aren't long enough to use iron sights on.

But it's got a CHF/CL barrel made by FN, I believe the receivers are made by VLTOR. It has a forward assist and adjustable gas. It can either take AR/Stanag mags or Steyr mags which are arguably some of the best 5.56 magazines every devised by man.

You can not lose with the AUG. It's been weighed and measured for decades, and they're still filling military orders. The only reason you don't see more of them in the US is Steyr doesn't even have to fucking care about the US civilian market because of all the military contracts and license deals they get from that one rifle.

Nobody here - that isn't a literal queerbait - is going to try and dissuade you from getting one.

>>32863096

I always thought the bolt carrier design on the AUG was wicked smaht. It's "updside down" - below the bore axis. Pic related. So the reciprocating weight is kept low, which in a rifle as squat as the AUG is a good thing for muzzle rise.

Whereas rifles like the Tavor, Bren, and SCAR etc. have a much larger top-heavy design and you can definitely feel the difference. I dunno, I just thought it was cool the first time I shot the AUG how much different it felt than the Tavor especially.

OP here.
I've never held one. I am a literal giant at 6'7". Carbine length ARs feel like squirt guns. Am I going to hate my Austrian space blaster?
>>
>>32864507

Hmmmm, that's definitely something to take into consideration. It's not incredibly short on the LOP, but I'm 6" shorter than you. You could also get an aftermarket (20/20, Suarez, or Steyr has one also I think) lower rail and just move a VFG out further if you wanted a little more space. I think you'd be fine though.

What are you giving for it?

I, an actual Austrian, am going to. I would never get an AUG when I can have

>>32864507

It's pretty bulky and wide, and like the other anon said, it also has a slightly longer length of pull compared to other rifles.

But I would have no idea what it would feel like for a 6'7" person.

said the man on the internet, lacking evidence.

>>32864699

Honestly if your AR is setup exactly how you like it, the AUG will be a big fit change for you. And if you're used to an upgraded AR trigger, you're in for a surprise with the AUG trigger - especially if it's a NATO version.
>>
>>32864796

I should have put "potentially unpleasant surprise".

A Neutrigger helps a bit, but it's kind of a janky fix imo

Please elaborate on "janky".
Also I know both guns are larpy but that what I'm going for. And that the aesthetics are at a price.

How about you suck my cock after I yank it out of your spasming boipussy.
>>
>>32864873

It's just a piece of polished spring steel you wrap and bend around your sear. The result is good but the though of just having a bent piece of steel in my trigger pack always made me wonder when it was going to fly off and jam the gun - but I've got a few thousand rounds through it and a couple carbine classes and it never went anywhere.

The "Trigger Tamer" is a little more solid option. I used both simultaneously with the Steyr stock and it was fine, but for some reason on the Nato stock it doubled up a couple shots and I said fuck that and ripped it out. Not sure why.
>>
>>32864904
I have heard that the trigger is dogshit. Are there other options out there beside what you've mentioned? Or that Lithgow some other guy mentioned.. Is that any better.
>>
>>32865091

It's not as dogshit as the Tavor factory trigger, but they do have the Geissele option. Honestly the neutrigger was enough to make me happy with it, but the trigger tamer works great too and you can get them both for under $100 total IIRC.

The lithgow I'm not sure about...they're making some big promises but it's all reminiscent of what I was hearing about the MSAR back then...If it winds up being good, great. But I feel like it's akin to saying the Galil ACE is better than an AK. You're talking about comparing a relatively new gun standing in the shadow of a gun with a massive track record of proven combat worthiness. Maybe it's a better gun, it very well could be, but personally I feel the guaranteed money is on the AUG.

I asked IV8888's crew when they were doing the Lithgow video if they took the same trigger pack and I never got an answer. Lithgow was suggesting that Geissele was working on a trigger pack for them. If it's compatible with an AUG trigger pack that would be great news.

When I mean "the current scope," I mean this.

The Austrian AUG A3s in service now have similar looking scopes, but are much lower in height. So even this isn't faithful to the military ones.

>The AUG is a fantastic rifle.

Stop posting that. It is not. The Tavor, M17S, and RDB are significantly better rifles if for nothing but the trigger. The only thing the AUG has going for it is quick change barrels, which they've neglected to put to a good use like caliber changes.

>>32863664
>>Worse than a RFB or RDB

Yes, it is. Without the NATO stock they're terrible. With the NATO stock they're passable rifles.

The A3 scopes are mounted via picatinny rails, of course it sits lower. The A3 M1 is just for people who wanted a style of scope similar to the old A1's. Two entirely different concepts you're making comparisons to for some reason.

>>32867473
You're retarded. The NATO stock does nothing but let you use your stupid AR mags and removes several features from the rifle. I'm getting sick and tired of cry babies calling anything that's not an AR-15 magazine "proprietary."

Used one in the army, ambidex design is strange to me, and definitely focused on military style shooting (front on, plates forward, wide stance) instead of traditional civilian styles (accuracy).

>>
>>32868514
Basically everything used proprietary mags until recently. I don't know why people talk about it like it's a reason to discount a weapon completely. So it uses its own mags, like basically everything, big deal. The only reason this came up as a valid con is because
>Ruger thinking it's OK to charge 60$ for 5 and 10 rounders in the 90's, early 2000's
>people needing something to harp on to justify why they dislike something

If you're buying a 1700 dollar rifle, why the fuck would you care about spending 40 dollars a mag rather than 30 anyway?
>>
>>32868514
If there's a copy of a magazine design, and there is of the AUG magazine, it's not proprietary. People really need to learn what that fucking word means. AR magazines are not a NATO standard and thus are not STANAG. Even if it were proprietary, the AR-15 magazine is a piece of shit and I'm tired of everyone forcing it onto every new gun design. It's literally the most garbage part of the AR-15.
