On a side note, the FAMAS in Metal Gear Solid is modeled after Tokyo Marui FAMAS, which in turn is modeled after the FAMAS G1. The G1 has the older F1 magazine-well and uses the old F1 magazines, wheres the the G2 has a fuller magazine-well and can only accept NATO STANAG magazines. The picture of the FAMAS G2 on this page is actually of a G1 which is the intermediate model between the F1 and G2. I know the Special Action Force and Kopassus use them as one of their main ARs. They just bought them (mostly) for spec ops use. Which makes sense since they are all former french colonial possessions.įor more FYI, Indonesia, the Philippines and UAE aren't French colonies. 74.177.135.205 14:29, 10 August 2010 (UTC)Īccording to Wikipedia, the Republic of Djibouti, Gabon, special forces groups in Indonesia, the Republic of Senegal, the United Arab Emirates, Lebanon, and the Philippine Special Forces use the FAMAS.- ThePotShot 14:31, 10 August 2010 (UTC)
