PureSilver Posted February 7, 2016 Report Share Posted February 7, 2016 Green AUG A1's looking very tempting, as is that shorty one. Does that have a name? CQB? Link to post Share on other sites
blobface Posted February 7, 2016 Report Share Posted February 7, 2016 I might have to... buy the base gun and have enough forend to make each option.... Link to post Share on other sites
sandstorm Posted February 7, 2016 Report Share Posted February 7, 2016 Airsoft manufacturers tend to call the short ones Para, but that's, in Steyr nomenclature, the 9mm SMG version. Link to post Share on other sites
Revengeful_Lobster Posted February 8, 2016 Report Share Posted February 8, 2016 It's pretty common for people to confuse the AUG variants, especially the A2 and A3. Slap an A1 railed receiver on it and it's suddenly an "A2"....yeah, not how it works. Link to post Share on other sites
rusTORK Posted February 8, 2016 Report Share Posted February 8, 2016 Where i can read about each version? A bit more info about all "Ax" would be great. Link to post Share on other sites
imprzaWRC Posted February 8, 2016 Report Share Posted February 8, 2016 https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Steyr_AUG Still waiting on details of GHK's version. Sent from my SM-N910H using Tapatalk Link to post Share on other sites
bankz5152 Posted February 8, 2016 Author Report Share Posted February 8, 2016 Thing is its still airsoft. The majority of folk would never notice or even care about the subtle differences. Providing the main changes are done. Look at the L85 A1/A2 many changes in the RS one but they are minimal in the Airsoft one. Charging handle being the main one. on my phone, my spelling will suck Link to post Share on other sites
Revengeful_Lobster Posted February 8, 2016 Report Share Posted February 8, 2016 Between the A1 and A2 there is a practical difference that applies to airsoft; the A1 having a permanently attached 1.5x scope or a permanently attached rail a la Tokyo Marui's "AUG Civilian" or Classic Army's "AUG A2," and the actual A2 which has a removable 1.5x scope that can be replaced with a rail without swapping the entire receiver. The A2 is far more modular. I'm still dying for an F88 so I can do an Australian kit, but no one seems to provide the proper birdcage flashhider or bayonet lug. Link to post Share on other sites
BioRage Posted February 8, 2016 Report Share Posted February 8, 2016 AUG PARA / CQB, do want. Assembly looks quiet easy, most likely you can easily interchange the fronts... question is now, will it handle devil hunter, heheheh Link to post Share on other sites
DamnLion Posted February 9, 2016 Report Share Posted February 9, 2016 Messaged GHK on Facebook thanking them for doing an A3. Now to check this thread 6x / day for a release date... Link to post Share on other sites
kullwarrior Posted February 9, 2016 Report Share Posted February 9, 2016 Messaged GHK on Facebook thanking them for doing an A3. Now to check this thread 6x / day for a release date... I doesn't look like a true A3 though (lack of bolt release). I would like to see NATO stock to be available down the road. Link to post Share on other sites

I know and the upper rail is a bit off - can't tell if there's a sling mount up there either. Link to post Share on other sites
Brigg Posted February 10, 2016 Report Share Posted February 10, 2016 What would be really interesting would be a kit to make it take a 9mm style mad. Though, I'm sure there's very little chance of that happening. Link to post Share on other sites

Though, I'm sure there's very little chance of that happening. I don't see the point of 9mm version. AUG Para uses an oddball gun's magazine which doesn't exist in airsoft. IIRC it was the SMG used in Austrian army at the time. Link to post Share on other sites

IIRC it was the SMG used in Austrian army at the time. Yup, the AUG Para takes MPi 69 magazines. UZI magazines are aesthetically similar but it's not like GHK make those either; the only GBB ones on the market are KWC, and I can't see GHK selling a kit that requires you to buy magazines from a competitor. I suppose it would be nice if GHK decided to make UZI magazines and a 9mm conversion for their ARs to go with it, but I reckon that's unlikely to say the least. Link to post Share on other sites
Jibbity Posted February 10, 2016 Report Share Posted February 10, 2016 That top one looks lake a combination of the A3 SA and newer A3 M1 rails. Link to post Share on other sites
sandstorm Posted February 10, 2016 Report Share Posted February 10, 2016 I actually considered getting a internally-broken AUG and putting my SPP internals into it for 9mm GBB AUG. The TMP long mags aren't that badly off, but in the end, my SPP is still intact so I didn't see more than novelty appeal to that project. Link to post Share on other sites

Revengeful_Lobster Posted February 22, 2016 Report Share Posted February 22, 2016 Just watched Redwolf's video on it and really disappointed. 2x scope? Three position safety? Fusing an A1 and an A2 and calling it an "A1"? TM and CA were the only two companies to get the A1 right. I guess if I want to do an Australian kit I'll have to hunt down an old TM or CA and 3D-print the proper flash hider and bayonet lug since no one seems to care about military-issue AUGs.
