My son received training with the Australian AUG recently while participating in field exercises with the Australian Army and the U.S. Marines. He liked the AUG but said that the shooters were instructed to remove the barrel to insure that the weapon was cleared (he burned his fingers doing so). Is this practice only for U.S. Joes or do the Australians do it as a matter of course? He was very impressed with the quality of the Australian troops.
