Does anyone have any data on how they perform when kept uncleaned?
A reservation I have with AUG is that it cannot be fired from your weak side. In car, and in situations where firing from your weak side is unavoidable, AUG's bullpup design is a problem.
And with the AUG there is always the flinch factor with the muzzle so close to your face.
:barf: never held one obviously.The AUG is a lousy combat weapon (I I understand it) best suited to ninjawannabes

The AUG is an ambidextrous rifle as the bolt is replaceable and the ejection port may be moved to either side of the receiver.Firepower! said:A reservation I have with AUG is that it cannot be fired from your weak side.

Ah, so if I have to roll out from behind cover to my left, I'll just real quick-like field strip my weapon.
That is not the case. Firing from the weak side means that you have setup your weapon to your strong side and for some reason you must end using on your weak side. AUG does not let you do that. The guy who made comment that I probably never held one doesnt really know what he talking about.
Creature said:My statement is still correct. The AUG is a completely ambidextrous rifle. What I did not say is that the AUG was "on the fly" ambidextrous. I was very specific about what needs to be done to make the rifle a left side ejector vs a right side ejector.
The original quote is very specific. It doesn't say the gun can't be fired from the left-hand side, it says the gun can't be fired from the WEAK side. It further makes the point that the issue is not one of a left-hander using the weapon by specifically stating that the problem is when one is put in a position when weak-side fire is unavoidable.Creature said:Negative.

Even the carrying strap swivels may be repositioned for convenient port-side carry.Firepower! said:A reservation I have with AUG is that it cannot be fired from your weak side.
