The Austeyr I used had a two-stage safety, which you pushed in and out with thumb and forefinger.The first click in was single-shot only, while the second click was what you described with single-shot then auto.

till now i thought the Austeyr(funny but good name btw. ;) ), or F88 as i belive it is called too, would be "exactly" the same as the AUG we use here.

as far as i can remember, the safety you use with thumb and forefinger just did two things here on the AUG A2, there is the "safe" and "unsave" position. we didnt had a way to get a 3rd, only single shot mode. means if you squeez off a single shot or a burst is entirely up to your triggerfinger :D

but it seems aussies modified the AUG a little, and i see that a single shot only mode as addition to the single/auto mode makes sense, or at least the "get used to" time is reduced. i did let off a burst where i shouldnt have, and well others did too, so there is a certiain amount of time required till you can work the AUG trigger reliably but i never saw such accidently shots from soldiers higher up in ranks wich obviousely shot quiet a lot more then we did.

The vid is great and I hate to be a music grog, but it isn't Bill Haley and the comet, its Bill Haley and His Comets. :)

Hi

Thx for the comments. I realized after uploading the video that there was a mistake ... I was toying a lot with the video editor trying to find a good mix between something a bit fun while still being interesting to watch, and forgot to double check the credits :rolleyes:

Thats exactly how the Austeyr works too. The Kiwi version uses the "safety" as the burst/single shot mode. Thats what Pinetree must've fired.
