It's a bull-pup, which always suggests it might be unusable on one side.

Wikipedia says: "The ejection port and reciprocating bolt handle on the right-hand side of the weapon means it is impossible to fire from the left shoulder as in a normal firing position this would rest against the side of the firer's left cheek."

On the AUG, the bolt handle does not reciprocate, but firing on the wrong side may put hot brass through your cheek.

Average grunt, but there weren't any questions about
how do you clean the operating rod of a Garand though.
So I think I should have scored higher.

NRA Member. You are 89% of a gun nut! You have excellent skills in weapons handling. I could definetly trust you to cover my back. Matter of fact, you're probably packing right now!

I'll admit to a lack of knowledge on a few obscure firearms, but I'll never admit that the .40SW is any more effective than the 9mm.

Okay, testing over. Results:

Untrained Militia

You are 17% of a gun nut! You know just enough about guns to make them work, if necessary. Don't try for a job as a hitman or mercenary, or you'll be laughed out the door.

Does this mean I don't qualify? I tried to answer truthfully and honestly. I've managed to forget almost everything I've learned so my edjucation has never been a burden on me.
