I used them for 4 years in the NZ Army. Not the best for shooting at night though. Ours came with the built in factory optics which mitigated its effectiveness to some degree, I envied my Aussie Army counterparts who had the forsight to issue their forces with models to which they could apply their own optics/scopes. The AUG is an awesome and versatile weapon with the right optics... and field stripping is a peice of cake. Not the best configuration for millitary drill though. I miss my baby...

Keep that in mind when comparing! One thing I didn’t call out in the M4/Steyr gun pic — you’ll notice that the LMT’s stock is fully collapsed, hardly a configuration that I would use.
