The STEYR AUG is a gas operated semi-automatic rifle with a locked ac-
tion. The STEYR AUG is famous for its modular concept, which allows
it to be quickly disassembled into six main component groups without
tools. These six component groups are as follows:
BARREL GROUP: The chrome-lined barrel is designed for high reliabil-
ity. The barrel can be quickly changed without the use of tools and has
a foldable barrel grip. The gas pressure can be adjusted to allow it to
function under adverse conditions, such as cold weather or when the
STEYR AUG is dirty. The gas regulator has two positions.
RECEIVER GROUP: The receiver has an integrated Picatinny rail (Mil.
Std. 1913) on which to mount various devices, such as a scope or flash-
light. The barrel is locked into the front and back of the receiver.

adverse conditions such as cold

the gas cylinder.
