Steyr Aug, each and every time The Steyr AUG has been designed to be the most durable and dependable weapon available today. More than 23 components of the AUG system including the stock, magazine and hammer mechanism are made of high-impact, extremely-rigid, synthetic material . These parts are friction resistant and need no lubrication to operate, giving them a very long life cycle. The receiver is made of a precision cast and machined high strength alloy which is corrosion resistant and easy to maintain. This receiver encloses a cold hammer forged, chrome-lined barrel with a minimum service life of 15,000 rounds. The AUG is easily disassembled to major components without tools, and most parts require no fitting. This decreases basic maintenance cost, as armory training is very simple...
now that is a nice gun - kiwi i was out in Iraq with had one - very easy to convert for left handed use (unlike L85 which can only be fired right handed) and he couldn't believe that the L85 was so heavy in comparison
I only had the privelage of an SA80 during basic training , once in a real unit i had a SLR 7.62 , posted to Nato officers mess as a CP driver , i was iddued a Browning 9mm high power and a SMG 9mm (both kak) Nato re-issued a H&K MP5S and a Sig Sauer P228LS (LS denotes Lazer Sight) cool weapons but not as cool as this bad boy Heckler & Koch Psg1 sniper rifle Edit i know link is to an airsoft example but H&K dont have one on their site Edited by: LLOYD
This GAU8 as seen on the A10 tankbuster is rather a useful peashooter. Fires 30mm DU and HE shells and slows the A10 down dramatically when it fires!
