By the time you fix the cocking handle and the trigger you could have bought a fairly sorted AR.

As a side note, if I had kept mine I got have actually made a profit when I sold it.
raptor handle about £35 inc tax, trigger? just learn to use it tongueout what do fairly sorted AR's start at now?

Do you have a link for the Raptor handle?

If you're going to use it competitively for CSR etc, then get an AR, there's a reason why most people use them! I love my AUG but the cocking handle layout doesn't lend itself to as fast reloads as you get with an AR and side charging handle, even with a Raptor charging handle fitted to the AUG

If you want any spare/upgrade parts for one, Low Mill Ranges http://www.lowmillranges.co.uk/ is the place to go. They also do custom work like reinstating the barrel release button, AR mag conversions etc

If it's for CSR then don't get an AUG, you'll regret it later as its just not competitive against the ARs.

If its for plinking and for just the pleasure of having one then it’s a steal at the price they are offered.
