They're not bad, I'd prefer the SLR or an AR platform. Kiwis are over it and they've shafted it for an AR and we've been retooling our variant to be more like an AR. Pretty sure we've got them because the Brits shafted the SLR for the L85, I don't think we wanted to adopt it so we had to go looking for something better that wouldn't break the bank.

Started life without STANAG compatibility BECAUSE THE STANAG DIDN'T EXIST AT THAT TIME.

NATO standard at that time was 7.62 NATO in 20x rounds.

The only country using 5.56 (the US) was using 55gr ammo in 20 rounds mags, which is what the french went with (but with 25 rnds mags. It's not entirely impossible old US 20rnds mags do work with a FAMAS, the mag release locks the back of the mags and old US mags have a slit there, I honestly don't know). Then the US decided to adopt belgian ammunition as the NATO standard for largely bullshit reason (the main one being 55gr is TOO DEADLY, look it up).

Upon which the french just went "this is retarded" and kept 55gr.

Less drop, less recoil in burst, more fragmentation…

Only because people stopped making decent 55gr was the switched made.

It's quite easy to change from lefty to righty, no tool are required (it's just that it took engineers 50 years to understand that "ambidextrous" to soldiers meant being able to shoot with both arms to clear corners not on your dominant one, not making them easier to use for lefties).

The only thing really shitty about it is the stupid placement of fire selector (especially since it was intended to be used in bursts and in this day and age no one does that).

I wish Steyr would produce once in 308.

any technical drawings of 25rnd famas mags?

It's not just that Austria and Australia have a surprising amount of gear in common.

I'm pretty sure someone in procurement in Australia was doing it on purpose…

>I'm pretty sure someone in procurement in Australia was doing it on purpose…

Ah, you've got us mate. We've been trying to create confusion so that we'd have a tactical advantage. By the time the enemy had figured out they were being attacked by us instead of Austria it would already be too late.

How were you planning to disguise the Drop Bear Airborne Regiments?

>>546265

Someone floated the idea of passing them off as Gypsies.

>>546278

That would take some heavy duty cosmetics and costuming. Granted I can only work from images lifted from a few frames taken from the two videos of confirmed sightings, but a Drop Bear is simply too honest looking and well groomed to pass for a Gypsy.

>>546355

How the hell did you get that close to a Drop Bear? But anyway, look at that photo again, it's far too good looking to pass as a gypsy.

Unlikely, if only because the Aussies use F88s, which are noticeably different from the AUGs. People only hate bulpups if they started on a conventional, the Aussie F88 and F90s are the best bulpups around.
