Except you couldn't.

tl;dr: - justification for a need of ownership (negligible hurdle)
- psychological exam*
- some kind of training (lol)

*[unless you have a hunters' license; which is a 2 1/2 months/80hrs course @1500€]

Not exactly "walking in and walking out again"

Also, what the fuck do you need a gun for if you explicitly state you're not interested in competition? Plz.

I specifically said shotgun, that is a gun that shoots shot, in German a Flinte, guns with smoothbore barrels. Category D according to Austrian law, free for anyone aged 18 and older to own in Austria. Even my beloved Gewehr 98 repeating rifle (Repetierbüchse) is category C according to Austrian law, free for anyone aged 18 and older to own in Austria. I'd only need to register it with the government.

Relevant link (thanks for linking to that page in the first place).

Handguns and semiautomatic rifles are category B and require everything you listed. And I am not that much interested in them. I want a Gewehr 98 with a Spandau production mark and shoot that maybe once every 2-3 months just for fun. German law means I have to jump through comparatively a lot of hoops just for that. In Austria just for the Gewehr 98 I want I wouldn't have to. I could buy it and be done with it. If I have to go through all that paperwork, be prepared that I will certainly get the allowed guns.

Is there rent you can rent and shoot so you don't need to go through the whole rigmarole of becoming a gun owner?

cant do forward rolls round you apartment with a rented gun

That's what i haven't been doing with my gun, the empty feeling in my life is now filled.

You can rent guns at ranges, but I am looking at very specific weapons. One of the more commercial rental places I looked at in Berlin doesn't have them but semi-auto AR15s and the usual stuff. I want a Gewehr 98 with a Spandau mark (for personal sentimental reasons - it's where I live) and ... not much else tbh.
By German law as a sports shooter I could get 3 rifles and 2 pistols before having to prove a specific need due to competition disciplines. So I'd probably end up having something 9mm, probably some AR and then maybe 22lr for really cheap shooting. If I ever get around to doing that.

Anyone can rent and shoot at a commercial range.
Depending on where you are, SOME places are quite a ripoff. Other places, like MSZU, are like 25bux for "all day rent of gun" + rangetime + ammo (at normal prices).

Rip-offs are those where you can only shoot X rounds as part of a package and then have to buy overpriced extra ammo, like 5 shots 5 euro, instead of the more typical "pack of 50 9mm for 15 bux".

Bought an AUG-Z A3 before the new EU legislation hits.

Yes, it is no beauty and the trigger is in need of attention but the number of allowed semi-automatic rifles isn't too big, plus AR-15 clones were very hard to get (months til orders would be fulfilled), so:

For now, yes - even the 42rd mag is no problem. After the new legislation hits, it may be that >10 round mags for rifles are Category A (Forbidden), only if you train for certain disciplines and compete you get an exemption.
Though it depends how Austria applies the new directive, maybe nothing changes in regard to magazines (yeah, one can dream!).

Yeah, good price for a nice quality scope. Not the best reticles to choose from, but then you'd have to pay upwards of 1.500€ instead of ~900€. With the mount, different muzzle brake and a different charging handle (I like the skin on my knuckles, thank you very much) it was expensive enough as is.

LIMOS kind of reminds me of GLIMOS and SLIMOS, two "incredibly important" roles at CERN.

No, I use the ZNEDL top cover rail as my compact does not allow any handguard raisl, the piston cover is literally just a little shell the size of a half ping pong ball.
