Let's talk about the AUG.

I love a good bandwagon.


Sighted in with the vortex uh1 gen 2 on the unity riser. Definitely need a different optic as I don't really trust the vortex too much after having to send it in a couple times due to parasitic battery drain. Next plans are to get a sling for it and add a streamlight protac 2 as soon as I can get my hands on one of the arisaka surefire tailcap adapters.

What’s the consensus on the Magpul AUG magazines? Worth picking up for $10-11 less than the factory 30-rounders?

I prefer the OEMs.

They wouldn’t drop free from an AUG I had. No reliability issues but I found it mildly annoying that the OEM mags would drop free but the Magpul ones didn’t.

I bought six Magpuls at the same time as my AUG, and while I haven’t been able to shoot them yet the one I unwrapped dropped free. I’m told their first ones didn’t.

Does anyone have experience with the RatWorx sear in recent production AUGs? There’s talk on their website of making a modification to the trigger pack in some cases, I’d rather modify the sear if it’s not a drop in.

Bumping back up.

I’ve been impressed enough with them when I’ve messaged that I ordered the trigger and safety kit without waiting.

What makes the Arid trigger/safety parts better than the OEM components?

Trigger pull is supposed to be reduced by 1-2 lbs as well as getting rid of over travel. The safety is metal (not sure that this matters at all) which has rounded edges - this most appeals to me because the corners on my oem safety are pretty sharp (I have read that some people solve this by just hitting it with a file on the sharp edges)

Lightly touching up the safety’s corners with sandpaper should be the first thing done to any newly purchased AUG. Holy sharp!
