Hi Carlos and welcome. Yes Sir. To do this, you disassemble the rifle bolt assembly, switch the ejection to the other side (right to left) and replace the standard righty bolt with a left hand bolt so you can work the bolt left handed and have the gas and empties directed away from your face. Cheers and stay safe! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=7OJhEy9Bh9A
Carlos, no, this is the nato version and cannot be converted to left hand. Here's info straight from the manufacturer............... The AUG A3 M1 is offered in two basic model variations – Standard or "NATO" Versions.
The Standard version uses the original Austrian "waffle" pattern magazines and can be modified to accept an optional left hand bolt assembly to accommodate left hand shooters for left hand case ejection.
The "NATO" version accepts AR-15 type magazines but is only suited for right handed shooters. So this cannot be swapped to left hand. You'd want the standard version. Sorry but hope this helps. Here's a link to the standard version that can be converted to left hand if interested................... https://www.budsgunshop.com/product_info.php/products_id/118434/steyr+arms+aug+a3+m1+556n+16+30rd+mud
