Famas looks so much better. As a real gun, I think it'd win.

Didn't you know that how effective guns are is based solely on how they look? Ie, to make a kick ass firearm, all you have to do is make it look awsome!

Looks are relative. Some people hate the FAMAS, some people love it.

I like the look of it, but I hate the carry handle. Carry handle goes, and it looks pimp. Viral.

Everyone's entitled to their own opinion on aesthetics- hell, most Armalite users hate both.

And the only reason it shoots so fast is because of the spring load is below 300FPS. Its a TM.

Famas use a 472mm barrel and the AUG uses a 509mm barrel. Using hi-caps can be awkward with bull-pups but you cant find a longer barrel in that size of a package. I don't think either have midcaps.

Get a CA AUG if for nothing else, for the after market parts so you can repair your gun easier.

Only reason it has high rof is because the gears in it are rated higher then normal high speed gears. The eg560 is high torque so the gears are rated much higher. Has hardly anything to do with the spring. Gear box on a famas is easy to get at like swatt13 said. im currently using an m120 and standard ration gears and an 8.4v battery and the rof has only dropped down to about 14 ish from 17. Now if i put in a 9.6v battery ill get that rof back

The EG560 is built for speed, not torque. Otherwise you'd be able to easily put in more than a 120% in the MAS.

its true, thats how robocop shot all those guys...pimpin' gun.

now since i'm here, I like the aug. Enough so that i have 2. But i really like the Famas as well. Kal's Famas has made kills my upgraded aug couldn't make. Both are fine examples of bullpup engineering.
