Steyr later released a version of the AUG bullpup rifle that removed the integral scope and installed a rail so that a scope of the user's choice could be installed. This allows night vision, red dot, and varying power scopes to be used for different purposes. The AUG A2 is the military version. In addition to the AUG S/A (the semi auto version imported into the US), there was a 20" barrel railed version called the AUG Special Receiver. AUG also released a version called the AUG P Special receiver (but with a 16" barrel).
