New FAMAS arrived!
 

Well, after 2 months of waiting, my new FAMAS has finally arrived!

I know a lot of people give CYMA crap about being unreliable and low quality, but I think this FAMAS is well made. Of course, I haven't field tested it yet, but just my holding it, I can tell it's in for a lot of use. It doesn't creak like the TM FAMAS, and it's pretty heavy.

It look really nice! And I think that the only things that you'll need to do it's to change de bushings for metal one, a shim and grease job. If you do it, the GB will last very long!

metal or plastic?

All fa-mas are plastic.

Nice..........cat!

Brand new French FA-MAS! Never fired! Only dropped once!

Exactly, is a very nice looking cat though. What's it's name?

Body is plastic, everything else (internals, barrel, trigger, bipod, magazine, cocking lever) is metal.

Cat's name is Tiger :p

A fuzzy black cat named Tiger? Cool, any more pics?

NOTE: I can't stand Famas, hence my not commenting on it. You really like it, run with it, not trying to spoil your enjoyment of your new sweetheart. I do find it funny, as a life long cat owner, that if you are trying to take pics of something or someone, cats always seem to find a way into the picture as if to draw attention from the focus onto them. Love it!! Lol

It's really the Cat's Famas....


Don't mess with kitty :D

lol. When he was a kitten he had a striped tail. So I called him Tiger. Now he's about a year old and his tail is just a plain black. So now it's kind of weird.

Unfortauntely, I don't have any other good pictures. Maybe I'll take more tomorrow :)

As soon as I unboxed it, he came running over and played with the box and styrofoam. It was cute.

The Famas. The first AEG of 60% of the noobs. Sold after 1 year.
Origin of the interest: video game where they made it shoot fast...

I just had to get it off my chest.

Now, if you are doing a french soldier impression, that's awsome. If not, well, IMO, it's a difficult AEG to maintain.

Ahh the french and their funky weaponry development.. Anyone ever seen the "bent barrel" french SMG from WWII?


Glad you enjoy it.

Actually, I bought it because I think the FAMAS looks awesome, and it's one of the fastest firing assault rifles in real life (1200rpm). And considering the 2 billion M4's, AK-47's, and HK416's floating around...

there is a reason why there are so many floating around haha, the m4 and the ak are the most upgradable platforms in both airsoft and real steel. m4s have billions of after market parts and the AK can be assembled from any parts made from anywhere, romanian reciever, russian barrel, ukranian bolt, whatever it still works :)
