Steyr AUG A3 M2 | .300 AAC Blackout | 16″ | 30+1

The Steyr AUG A3 M2 is a compact bullpup semi-automatic rifle chambered in .300 AAC Blackout with a 16″ steel barrel and a 30+1 magazine capacity. Its right-hand configuration, black Mannox receiver, and synthetic stock make it a durable, purpose-built carbine for users who value a short overall length without sacrificing barrel length. For an optic under $1,000 that pairs well with this platform, consider a 1-6×24 variable such as the Vortex Strike Eagle series for fast target acquisition and versatile close-to-medium range performance.

Applications: tactical training and short-to-medium range hunting are two practical uses for this configuration, where compact handling and the .300 AAC Blackout cartridge’s performance are advantageous.
