heads up the parts kits that are out there like the malaysian ones are auto kits meaning just about any receiver or bcg you buy to use for them will not be compatible.I have been really tempted to pick up an AUG parts kit because they just seem so cheap but then I look at cost to finish one and its insane
The surplus are auto stocks that require a significant amount of work to use with semi auto receivers to where youre essentially just making a machine gun. The kits for most users are pretty junk outside of using the bolt and cleaning kit.
The APEX military surplus Steyr Aug kits include everything except receiver and barrel,, so if one wants to build it out for semi-auto function then a semi-auto receiver, a semi-auto hammer pack and a barrel must be sourced.
The surplus AUG kit’s shell (or stock), the bolt and bolt carrier will be fine for semi-auto.
I have a black STANAG (NATO) Steyr Aug shell (or stock) and hammer pack for $500 in Norcross.

im saying per ATF requirements steyr revised the semi auto dimensions so that folks could not swap surplus auto parts into a SA gun. Very common situation that is well documented if you pend the timing researching before purchase..
Youre saying that you personally tried to insert a semi-auto receiver into one of the military surplus kit’s plastic shells (stock) and the semi auto receiver would NOT insert.. ?
Yeah your transferrable would have different diameter guide rods and receiver dimensions than a SAAah, I see you’re going by the ARfcom article.
BTW, I have a transferrable Steyr Aug and several of the APEX kits
i cant speak to whatever model you have (likely a pre ban) or what you are swapping in but those malaysian kits absolutely do not work with SA receivers.Nope, I have a transferable FA hammer pack that is swappable into any semi auto Steyr Aug. Stocks are not modified.
Yep, that is pretty much what I learned googling. At the point of building one of those kits I would be more money than just buying a complete AUG. I can only imagine that people who have SOTs would find the kits really usefulheads up the parts kits that are out there like the malaysian ones are auto kits meaning just about any receiver or bcg you buy to use for them will not be compatible.
