    FAMAS has started to phase out of the French army in 2017, it is replaced by some AR-15 looking H&K. No more French bulldog pups :(

        It’s is definitely a cool looking gun, still looks sci-fi today, but I am not sure the soldiers like it much.

        They fell for the short stroke piston meme. Many such cases.

    Don’t worry, the G2 accepts STANAG Draft magazines, because not accepting them for a 5.56mm rifle is silly. G2 could accept NATO standard 5.56mm ammunition, because the original rifle being designed for special French 5.56mm was double silly.

    Also the Felin is what happens when a Land Warrior type program escapes captivity and starts breeding in the wild.

      G2 was only for the French Navy. All other forces only ever got the straight mag version, as far as I know.

        That’s right. In a rare happening, this makes the Navy the least silly branch.
