    I've had a good look about and the only other Famas next to the Marui one i've seen is a Chinese clone. I couldn't imagine that feeling any more realistic...

    I'm still in two minds about the build quality of it myself. Sometimes I pick it up and it feels great. Sometimes It feels meh.

    I have to say though, it never feels plasticy or meh during a firefight ;)

    I'd say CA would do a good FAMAS if they put their mind to it. Make it all metal and weigh 4kg like the real thing. But seeing as CA have the Steyr AUG A3 lined up for this year I don't see a FAMAS on their cards.

    CA Aug A1= "Top Gun" (Airsoft international).

    Its well worth the cash. And I agree, its a sexy gun!

    I agree with the CA AUG comments. It just feels well built.

    You can fit a lower rail on easily enough by drilling a couple of holes in the battery cover. That would then allow the addition of grenade launchers etc.

    I think that's a decent enough range of additions to keep someone interested for a while!

    it might be not as customisable as an M4 but the famas can be customised more then people think it can.
    heres a link with just a few of the many add ons

    It's an autowinding mag! If I had the money I'd consider getting one. 500 rounds of autowinding Famas. Oh the insanity.

    We already knew about the insanity the moment we all met you for the first time.

    Oh wait, you meant the autowinding mag...

    Yeah, even with Auto winding its not worth the money IMO.
