		* F88C: The Austeyr F88c is a Carbine version of the regular F88 which has a 407mm barrel (10cm shorter than the standard issue F88).
		* F88S: The Austeyr F88s have a picatinny rail in place of the standard optic sight to allow the attachment of various other sights (such as night vision or high-quality long range sights such as the Elcan C79 Wildcat, ACOG or Aimpoint).
		This version of the Steyr is notorious amongst Australian infantry soldiers because the rail is uncomfortably close to the cocking handle; this feature frequently results in knuckle injuries after prolonged use.

		This is an excellent custom cum kitbash figure from Austeyr aka Sean (GPHQ Owner) that was also submitted as an entry to AFM 2001 organised by Force 126.
		So since it was loaned to me by my pal and "business" partner Austeyr, I decided to dedicate a page in my workshop to this wonderful work of his.
		Austeyr had the entire figure weathered and "washed" to simulate dirt from Iraqi soil.

		Posted 26-Oct-2006 6:02 AM hey i was wondering how much it would be for a 5.56mm F88 Austeyr rifle.
		Modified by the_village_idiot657 On 29-Oct-2006 11:44 PM Im not sure how much I will pay, thats the purpose of this quote but I think it would be quite a bit.
		Posted 10-Nov-2006 1:54 PM That might not really be a smart thing to say, if clients read that, may make them doubt.

	THR - View Single Post - XM8 question.
		You'll find that military Steyrs actually have iron sights built into the top of the optics/carrying handle, for just such a situation.
		I've never handled a civilian Steyr so I cannot attest to whether or not all models feature backup irons, but the F88 Austeyr certainly does.
		Australian soldiers are trained in the use of both the optical sight and emergency iron sights.

		ADI's facility in Lithgow, New South Wales, is primarily engaged in the manufacture and remanufacture of military small arms.
		ADI is currently manufacturing four world leading military small arms weapons with the principle output from the Lithgow facility being the F88 Austeyr rifle.
		The weapon provides an economical training alternative, with very low ammunition cost, which can be used in environmentally sensitive training areas and indoor areas for special force training with reduced risk to trainees and instructors.

	Military Service Caliber For the 21st Century - Part 2
		True, the round has a very flat trajectory, however unless it is fired from an accurized rifle, this advantage is less important than it might otherwise appear.
		Many Australian soldiers owe their lives to this unique and reliable rifle, and those who serve today deserve a personal weapon that is at least as good as the L1A1 SLR.
		The Austeyr and other weapons, which are chambered for the 5.56mm round, do not even come close.

		Using leftover foam packing supports from his bro's HIFI box, AUSTEYR made himself a 1:6 ruin that depicts middle eastern "bombed out" building.
		Many of you may have seen AUSTEYR's pics of this ruin at messageboards.
		Unfortunately, the pictures were taken using a webcam hence were pretty grainy and did this materpiece no justice at all.

		First of all the Steyr AUG or the F88 Austeyr as it is designated by the ADF was made by Steyr Mannlicher in Austria.
		Don't quote me on this but I think the Austeyr's saftey catch works by physically blocking the trigger from the firing mechanism.
		When the safety is applied (By pushing in the sliding button toward the right) the trigger cannot be squeezed (or pulled, whatever you like).
