Looks to be a Steyr AUG or variant thereof.

I gather that they use anything they can get their hands on.

Someone needs to watch Die Hard for Christmas (Karl's Steyr Aug).

Arabs use whatever they can find, including Nazi weapons left over from WW2.

Yep, he has himself one very nice Steyr AUG, complete with bayo holder. It might look funny because he has the front grip folded forward.

I saw the front page of the New York Times and that photo was there yesterday. I saw that and thought to myself "yeah thats not a gun you see in the newspapers very often."

No. The Greek and Armenian middle men running the arms business have a vast assortment of whatever falls off the back of a truck in Europe.

By the color scheme, that is a Stg77, aka AUG. Stolen from Austrian military or a contract gun for Argentina, Ecuador, Oman, Saudi Arabia, etc.

Lots of guns floating around out there on the grey market.

Your homework assignment: watch Lord of War and report back.

Great homework assignment and who wouldn't want the assortment that fell off of one of those trucks! Woohoo!

Nope.

Steyr and HK were big with that Lybian guy too.
