A Steyr AUG A3 in unmodified form is an assault weapon. However, it isn't an assault weapon by name, so it's possible to modify a Steyr AUG A3 so it isn't an assault weapon under California law. That would usually involve modifying the pistol grip and flash hider and vertical foregrip or modifying the magazine release. To be an assault weapon under California law, it must also be semiautomatic. California regulation gives as examples:
(3) With regards to an AR-15 style firearm, if a complete upper receiver and a complete lower receiver are completely detached from one another, but still in the possession or under the custody or control of the same person, the firearm is not a semiautomatic firearm.
(4) A stripped AR-15 lower receiver, when sold at a California gun store, is not a semiautomatic firearm. (The action type, among other things, is undetermined.)
