SnypaUK 0 Posted November 2, 2003 Or an L85? (SA80). Ive got to admit the FAMAS is a sexy weapon though and it has the bipod as well which seems a good idea Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ran 0 Posted November 3, 2003 from my personnal experience , the FAMAS is a fantastic weapon for mech-infantry the FAMAS has been designed as an assault rifle but also as a SAW/LSW (hence the bipod and the high rate of fire) it can use rifle grenades without any modification latest versions of the G2 can be fitted with different optical sights and even a M203 grenade launcher GIAT as made some experiments for a DMS version which didn't interest the french army the latest FELIN modifications adapted on the FAMAS offer a wide range of electronic devices (the team leader can check his men's ammo load via his command interface from the squad data-link for exemple and modern aiming system linke angular , IR sights , laser range finder , red-dot instictive aiming device for close ranges and also a combat identification device )Giat Industries FAMAS-FELIN description .PDF file Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
