I kind of have a soft spot for bullpup rifles, even if I don't think they're all that great.
The Steyr AUG was swoopy and cool when I was playing Twilight 2000. I've several character sheets with an L85A1 on them too.
But the AUG marks a bit of funny for me.
There's a bit in the film Jackie Brown where Samuel L Jackson's character is going on about this gun or that on a video and he mentions the Steyr; along the lines that if someone would put it in a movie, they'd sell like gangbusters!
This makes me giggle because: Look at how many times it's been in a movie! The AUG is no stranger to film! The earliest appearance I can remember is the Arnie action movie Commando. I've seen it off and on in lots of other movies too.
Perhaps the reason that it wasn't selling like gangbusters has a lot more to do with the legal climate?
