Most importantly it will be offered in 300 Blackout. Am I interested in this being my first bullpup?
>>61432298Steyr Arms is also 35 million € in debt
>>61432298PSA is selling the package that comes with the 16 inch .300 barrel and a 20 inch .223 barrel
>>61432328And the optic too
>>61432298The trigger mechanism is still mediocre unless they updated it to have pins instead of sliding surfaces.https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=JcYcFkS4t5w
>>61432298>offered in 300 Blackout.no interest, surprised at Steyr for offering such thrash
>>61432298Looks like shit.
>300blk AUGFinally.
>>61432298if they had lead off with "we finally fucking fixed the cracking stocks" I might have been interested
>>61432298Do they still crack?
Looks svolles desu, the only part thats even aug about it now is the stock
>>61432894No thats just this guy's forced meme. He spends all day refreshing the board to reply to any mention of the aug with "hur dur the stock cracks lol." I'd wager hes never even seen an aug and is quite possibly noguns
Some guy designed a really neat 3d printed trigger shoe for these that cuts pull weight in half as well as some other cool stuff. the files are free on thingiverse. The guy's name is B3ND3RZE3 I think
>>61432955Found it https://www.thingiverse.com/thing:6564672
The handguard looks like they chopped up one of those cheap Chinese ar15s handguards and attached it to the rifle. It looks awful
>>61432998It is a definite improvement over the old cqc handguard. That one had a single thin lever to lock the handguard in that would snap easily. This one seems to use 2 standard qd levers
Do not buy a modern AUG unless you want a gun thats stock cracks in half under a 1000 rounds or a gun with a cast metal receiver on par with paper mâché
>>61433043>browsing r*ddit
>>61432298>new aug>looks like the same aftermarket additions people have been using for yearsThat's nice, I guess.
Did they fix the mosaic stocks?
a lot of bot posts itt
>>61433094>>61432894>>61433043Really wish we still had the IP counter
>>61433110Just wait for email verification or better yet, mandatory 4chan Pass to even post for all boardsThere's a reason why the IP counter is gone for now
>>61432933>possibly nogunsI'm going to wager the opposite and say he has 10 5.56 AR-15s with slight variations in optics and barrel lengths along with 8 Glocks: model 17 (gen 3-5), 19(gen 3-5), 45, and 48.
>>61432298>Barrel is still not chrome lined>didn't address cracking issue>still no skirt or other blocking mechanism for the charging handle to stop debris from bricking the gun>same charging handle that is literally the first thing everyone replaces lmao>still comes with grenade launcher gas plug instead of civilian relevant suppressor plug. >still no standard qd mount in the rear take-down pin>no trigger pack upgrade, not even the red springsThe brass deflector is nice though. I like that.
>>61433156I really miss the internet before a billion scamming pajeets and chinks clawed their way on.
>>61433410>8 GlocksBRO I can't believe Glock mags still crack? They'll never fix this; Glock a shit ololololololololololol
>>61432298>it will be offered in 300 Blackout.I've grown tired of this retardridge
Did the stock get turkedis it keltec revolver obeseletE?Should I kille myself with this???
>>61432298>"""""Updated"""""">Slapped on aftermarket partsNo. I do not like it.
> 300BLKYawn, wake me up when they release a 9mm conversion kit that isn't $1600
>>61434477>that foregripHave Steyr forgotten what an AUG is supposed to look like
>>61433453>tragedy of the commonsyou see, our world is really a big pyramid scheme, and you're all at the bottom
>>61432298Does it have a CHF CL barrel?
>>61432298I was about to talk shit about 300BLK but actually I guess a bullpup's short OAL makes sense for running a can and they might be onto something with it.
the thick front ruins the slick aesthetics of the classic.
>>61435883Same with the Mini 14 300 blk. It wouldn't look bad but that fat barrel is hilarious. Which is a shame because a quiet silenced mini would be neat.
>>61435809No. the FN barrels the US models have been using since late 2020 have been nitrate barrels. It would be very strange if these didn't end up shipping with those.
>>61432372Updated trigger springs to the orange ones Updated trigger to the arid aluminum Getting around 5 to 4.5lbs trigger pull with zero slop accuracy is getting sub moa with my 20 inch barrel 55 grain soft point and 1 moa with 62 grain lake city no shit better than my Jewish sig mcx
>>61439293>no slopGot webm of trigger pull?
>>61439293Orange, who does the orange?I got the red from Steyr.
>>61439293Why doesn't anyone make a completely new AUG trigger pack with a more intelligent pin design?
>>61440306This is a replacement aug trigger pack that takes a cut down (shoe and stop removed) metal trigger. It lowers the pull and pre-travel. I am trying to tune out the remainder by messing with the adjustable engagement point.
>>61432298I've always had a soft spot for the AUG, but at this point I fundamentally believe that Steyr deserve bankruptcy. The AUG has to be the most mismanaged rifle you can buy, those .300 barrels have existed for over half a decade and they are only now coming to the biggest AUG market; and they're only doing that because somebody tried it over here (heresy group). Exact same story with the MSAR, they weren't interested in producing AUGs in the US until somebody else did it and suddenly they're setting up a factory. That kind of complacency, only lifting a finger when you have to; just cant last in the current gun market. Its crazy to me that people constantly bitch about H&K mistreating their civilian customers when H&K guns and parts are pretty attainable for a steep price, when you've got these motherfuckers over the border who treat the civilian market with open contempt.
>>61432298>Updated AUG just dropped.>It looks just like the last one.Consume product and get excited for next product.
I heard from Brass Facts that Hop hates the AUG. This is weird because Hop said he doesn't care about triggers at all.
that is lazy they stole the aftermarket parts without updating internals. and charging same price lmao
>>61432328>>61432333>>61432328>>61432333wont even give us the good 3x optic. thats the not good one dont fall for it
>>61442904Doesn't fit enough night vision stuff on it to be tacticool.
>>61443519Garand Thumb did it just fine.
>>61432298>remove hand guard to adjust gaslol no
>>61443580It took the guy 5 seconds to get it off in the TFB video. What kind of operations are you doing that require constant gas setting changes?
>>61433156I’ll leave this shithole if they implement that sitewide.
>>6143405310 round magazine dont deserve to exist anyway.
>>61443553>mounts the best egro LAM>used a fucking switchlmao trash
>>61443593Tuning it when I put a can on/off, what the fuck else would you get 300 BO for?Disassembly to change a simple setting is peak retarded. Might as well get a VHS-k2
>>61443601You're such a moron. He used a LAM that keeps out of the way of the charging handle. Then he used a pressure pad for activation.
>>61443644You just slide it off in a couple seconds. You'd take more time removing the suppressor.
>>61443662and this sounds fun to you? when there's guns that don't require doing all this?
>>61443676Guns that aren't bullpups, or aren't as light, or don't have rails, or can't swap the barrel rapidly, yeah.
>>61432298>cantilever>oh jee woweee they now add some side rails from factory>brass deflectorWow great job Aug, you've caught up to the 1990s!Were there any other meaningful updates?>>61432328They are not the same rifle.Picture in the OP is the M2, which is a flattop which we probably won't get in the states for a long time.Hence the lack of deflector and hand guard on the PSA side>>61435809Nope>>61443710>yeah man it's better to have to take off a hanguard than an adjustable block that's easily accessible like 99% of firearms that have an adjustable system>yeah man it's better cause it can swap barrels instead of an upper which can have pre zeroed gear on it or other systems that also have barrel swaps>yeah man 99% of competing firearms don't have rails>>61443662>yeah man it's better to have to do a partial disassembly after your gun starts getting dirty with a can and stops running right and need to tune gas to make up for it especially in a combat situationI think the Aug is a fine rifle(besides it's trigger mechanism), but the way you cope cracks me the fuck up.Lighter/shorter? Sure I'll give you that. Nothing else you listed was a benefit.
When will Steyr learn?Their handguns suck too
>>61443595Good. It'll leave either only actual human posters with interests in the respective boards or allow for only shills to dominate, leading to the death of 4chanEither scenario is winning
>>61444940>pre zeroed gear on itThe nu-AUG's rails are 3, 9 and 6 oclock. The top rail is permanent and thus you don't lose zero from replacing the handguard.What operations are you doing that require constant, immediate gas setting changes? Reloading a mag takes more time than taking off the rails on the nu-AUG. Stop projection-coping.
>>61445041>changing barrels doesn't affect poi shift>changing caliber doesn't affect poi shift>hasn't shot a rifle long enough where carbon fouling(which is even more exasperated by a can) or other dirt/sand/clay situations requiring more gas, especially when it forces you to manually cycle action>even more so for mil armory guns which are prefucked by nature You're either a nogunz, a retard, or haven't been shooting a long time.Like I said I like the aug even with it's issues, buddy has a a3m1 and it's decent probably snagging one myself in a year or two. But it is not a superior platform by any stretch, more of a sidegrade.
>>61445074>changing barrels doesn't affect poi shift>changing caliber doesn't affect poi shiftWho said it doesn't? Sounds like you're strawmanning.>mil armory gunsThey don't even use suppressors. Australian AUGs were more reliable than the M4 in Afghanistan, by the way.
>>61445111>checked>strawmanningNigga my statement was maintain zero for the upper and glass and accessories and you were the one that swapped to rail zero only which again, would still be affected by a caliber change or barrel length change.Yes they were more reliable than the m4, no doubt about that still ran into similar issues where an adjustable gas block would have helped(same with the m4s).>don't even use suppressorsDo you know why? :^), I'll give you a hint, the aug was a shit suppressor host, which is why they moved to the adjustable gas block system in order to better support it.You asked why you'd need to adjust gas in a setting, and I gave you real world examples of when you would. Having a removable design to access it is a shit design, period, full stop, end of discussion. This goes for any firearm with an adjustable gas block you have to do a disassembly to access, not limited to the aug. Even DesertTechs systems are kinda crap as it's a window to adjust it vs it being easily accessible.Shit even the chinks have been doing it since the 90s with the qbz95 or whatever the fuck it's called.
>>61445156Your statement was about a loss of zero in relation to removing the rails. The implication being that you were referring to LAMs. The nu-AUG doesn't have a problem with that. If you were talking about swapping caliber barrels, then any weapon will see a zero shift just from the change in muzzle velocity.
>>61445271Correct, besides changing uppers that are prezeroed on ar platforms. There will always be microscopic shifts depending on receiver mating but we're talking less than a 1/4moa, I've had good luck on repeat tests for shiggles.Sorry I should have specified, was referring to the removable barrel aspect. That's on me.
>>61445330I see. Carrying a single barrel > carrying a whole upper with extra set of rail accessories, though. We can deal with the zero shift if we get good with our optics or use the new sig optic with 2 separately zeroed dots.
>>61445387Depends on usecase and situation imo, reason why most sof groups use the ar platform is quick swap uppers in kit lockers for ease of swap prior to mission or role. Civie side not so much of an application unless you have a preban lower or poor/buying a super gucci lower and just want to swap top ends. As we usually just buy extra rifles even if they fullfill the similar or slightly different role. Aug's limited for obvious reasons so I won't hold that against it as it does have an easily swapped barrel which you'll still want to re-zero imo or at least to a 3 round spot check for a new hold at 100(or 25/28/50/52/whatever zero you normally do).
So what's the verdict on the Heresy conversion kits? I have an A3M1, and Brownells is running a sale on the 300blk conversion barrel at the moment.
