The Steyr AUG, due to it's bullpupped layout, has futuristic
lines more resembling an alien death blaster than a rifle. Chambered
in .223 NATO and carrying 20 rounds in a translucent plastic
magazine, the AUG is the military issue assault rifle of several
countries.
The Steyr AUG is, despite its unorthodox appearance, very
representative of the assault rifle class of weapons. While lacking
the power and accuracy of a large caliber rifle such as the .308,
they offset that disadvantage with much higher rates of fire and
large magazine capacities.
The AUG uses .223 ammunition, NATO-standard for assault
rifles.

Also known as .223 Remington, .223 NATO, 5.56 NATO, or 5.56x45mm,
it has been adopted almost universally as the free world's assault
rifle caliber. It is used by weapons too numerous to list, including
the M16 and the Steyr AUG. Firing a bullet of .22 caliber at an
*extremely* high velocity (which also gives it exceptional range) it
causes damage through kinetic transfer instead of blunt trauma.
This is a box magazine full of ammunition for the
AUG. Twenty rounds can go by remarkably fast if you rapid-fire three
shot bursts.
This is a pair of clips for the Steyr AUG - more
importantly, this is 40 rounds of .223 ammunition. Unlike the MP-5,
the Aug is rather effective with a sparing use of ammo, so you're
well advised to be conservative.
