[ARCHIVED THREAD] - Is the Steyr AUG a mishapen abomination?

I mean, it looks like it was designed by a Hollywood script writer. Would YOU want to be seen in public with one? [:D]

Are we talking about A. the man or the B. the machine???

If A, then yes [;)] , if B, no.

And regarding your second question,

Yes, I would want to be seen in public with one (the gun that is) as long as it had a lefty bolt.

You're talking about those Austrian photon ray guns aren't you? [;)]

They are ugly and stupid. If you have them you only like ugly guns, and that means you are an idiot. Think about it.

Thus, I am offering a service to you, fellow gun owners, to take your Steyr AUGs for you, FREE OF CHARGE, so you can avoid being made fun of by others.

Fugly - the gun, can't speak of the man.

[#9]

Yes, he is.

That gun is at the top of my wetdream list! I mean come on a trigger that will fire both semi and full without the use of a selector switch (of course I would have to settle for semi only). I don't know if that's good or bad but it's fu*king cool. Can we stop talking about it now, it gets me feeling all funny inside.

You Tell Me:

Steyr AUG, Galil, FNCs.

Handles well, can get a lefty bolt fairly easily, I'd put the reliablity on par with an HK 9* series, not quite up to AK, but pretty damn close. Points and shoots well, the integral optics make it quick to shoot with (that's with the "donut of death" reticle).

I'll add the picture later--can't seem to connect to the photo server. Look under "AFARR's Pictures" if you can get over there.

I always thought SteyrAug was a cool guy but I've never met him in person so I can't comment on his looks...[:D][;)]

Yes and no I wouldn't want to be seen in public with one.

I always wanted to say that but nobody ever asked.

I regard ANY bullpup design as a travesty.
