Prices better be in CAD. They had (still have?) a MG42 for roughly 3K.

And why the FA-MAS? Well, I like bullpup designs, I find it shoulders really well, it's beauty is unsurpassed, and it's short enough to handle the tight corners. Also, it tends to be cheap. And we all like moneys.

You're right. Just got mine, I'm loving it.
Review's in the Review section. Go for it.

Yes can tell from your avatar that you love Famas.

Actually, I had that avatar before I got the FA-MAS, just because it was cool. Nothing to do with the gun, anyways...
Personally, the FA-MAS is ass-ugly with the handle (However, there are 8 SIGHTS on it. Nifty, though), yet check my review for pics of the planned conversion (G36 handle, metal cheekplate and foregrip... it'll be nice).

My experience with my famas:

Great gun for mix terrain... great indoor/outdoor gun.
Rate of fire is ridiculous.
mods for m16 mags make stars a reality.

1 major problem. The hop up isn't being manufactured. or atleast you can't get them here in the US. I am forced to spare my famas and not use it often. My only options here in ohio are used hop ups.

2 usage problems.
spinning highcap is odd on famas.
multiple safeties in particular the the one at the butt of the rifle is a problem. Tends to switch on off.

hope you have some black electrical tape handy*creek*. And keep an eye on the foregrip.

I traded an ak47 for it ouright. The ak had a worn spring and more body wear/use.

I would take the ak back in a hearbeat. my opinion

ps the sites are cool. you get everything from a thompson smg to a m16 type feel.

True... however, I wouldn't want a 30 round mag for that ROF. I'm doing the M16 mag mods, yet getting 120-round midcaps, probably. Or, if I get a raise or so, perhaps even an electric auto-winding 1000 round drum mag : )
I like multiple safeties, really... simple solution to the front one, just don't turn it on in the first place. Back one's always there, and it's the same mechanism as every other one. However, I'll admit changing from semi-full's a bit confusing... ah, well. Who needs Semi with that rate of fire?
