Steyr Arms Aug A3 M2 5.56 NATO 16" 30-Round Rifle

The Steyr Arms AUG A3 M2 5.56 NATO 16-inch 30-round rifle in Mud finish is a semi-automatic platform designed for law enforcement, military training, and precision rifle competition. The AUG platform has proven itself across decades of global military service, and this modern A3 iteration brings refined ergonomics, improved modularity, and enhanced reliability to professional and civilian operators. Its compact 16-inch barrel configuration delivers the firepower of a full-size rifle in a package suited for vehicle operations, close-quarters response, and precision work at intermediate distances.

The AUG A3 M2 features a bullpup design that consolidates the action, magazine well, and controls into a compact footprint while maintaining a full sight radius and comfortable ergonomics. The 5.56 NATO chambering ensures compatibility with standard military ammunition and delivers consistent 400-yard effective range with proper marksmanship. The integrated Picatinny rail system accommodates modern optics and accessories without the need for external mounts, and the ambidextrous safety and mag release allow rapid weapon transitions. The Mud finish provides corrosion resistance and a non-reflective surface suitable for field operations, while the 30-round magazine capacity supports extended engagement scenarios and training exercises without frequent reloads.

This rifle benefits operators in law enforcement tactical units, military training environments, and precision rifle competitors who value modularity and reliability under demanding conditions. The AUG A3 M2 integrates seamlessly with standard 5.56 NATO ammunition, NATO-profile optics mounts, and industry-standard slings and support gear. Its bullpup layout makes it ideal for vehicle-based response teams and situations where overall length and maneuverability are critical—a consideration that sets it apart from conventional AR-platform rifles of comparable barrel length. FFL transfer and compliance with all federal, state, and local firearms regulations are required at purchase.
