This A1 configuration showcases the integrated 1.5x Swarovski optic with emergency notch sights built into the carry handle. The setup offers rapid target acquisition with a simple, robust sighting system and a single top adjustment drum as specified.
The rifle retains the hallmark AUG features: a gas-operated, rotating-bolt action in a right-hand ejection bullpup platform, an adjustable gas regulator, and the iconic folding vertical foregrip. Its 20 inch steel barrel is the standard quick-change, ribbed profile with a long slotted flash hider, and the barrel is threaded.
Construction is true to Steyr’s design with an alloy receiver and a glass-fiber-reinforced polymer stock finished in grey-green. The stock includes sling loops and a rounded polymer buttplate, with a measured length of pull of 14.5 inches.
As a Pre-Ban Interarms import, this example carries Austrian proof marks with a Vienna three-letter date code P?R alongside the Interarms Alexandria VA import marking. The receiver and barrel have matching serial numbers, and the rifle ships with translucent, waffle-textured Steyr magazines: one 42-round and three 30-round units. Stated capacity is 42+1.
