STEYR AUG 16 inch BARREL
The 16 inch aug is a very useful variant of the AUG. It is a middle weight allowing for accuracy out to 300 M but a shorter weight for manipulation in tight quarters. The most specific aspect of this rifle for the American user is its collection value. Valued between 4000-7000 for an Black A2. Many 20 inch green variants have been died black and the barrel cut to mimic a black aug.
"Check
the barrel closely on a black AUG to see it was a green AUG with a converted
barrel. I Have customers that are buying the black AUG stock kits and
then sending the 20" barrels off and cutting them down to 16" and
selling the AUG as a black AUG matching #'s gun for a premium price.
The green AUG barrel is threaded on the outside of the barrel from the
flash-hider down to the stock. The factory black AUG's have only
1" of threads showing. They start at the gas piston and are only
1" in length."
