The Austrian bullpup assault rifle - Steyr AUG.
steyr AUG appreciation post
Punisher's Arsenal featuring the Steyr AUG by Eliot R. Brown from The Punisher War Journal No. 11, November 1989. Marvel.
The first movie the Steyr AUG is thought to have appeared in was Octopussy (1983). The first movie I can remember noticing it in was Die Hard (1988).
One of the more unusual users of a variant of this gun was the Falkland Islands Defence Force (FIDF) who adopted it in the late 80's/early '90's. At the time the FIDF were looking for a new rifle the obvious choice for them would have been the British SA80/L85. It was found to have a few 'issues' and it would take some time before these were addressed. The FIDF used the AUG up until 2019 but it has now been gradually replaced by the L85A2.
