It is the current service rifle for the French military, and has been in service since 1978. It fires the NATO standard 5.56 by 45 mil cartridge. The iron sights are built into the top carry handle, and are a rear aperture and front shrouded post type. The FAMAS is a hard-hitting and accurate member of the assault rifle category. It is capable of placing the three rounds in each burst in a very small area, and with stopping power can kill in one burst at any range, assuming all shots hit. If you can aim accurately and quickly with the FAMAS, and get the three rounds on target, the enemy will simply not have time to react. Unfortunately, and the same is true for all of the burst weapons, if you fail to kill with the first burst you will be subject to a delay before you can fire again - giving the enemy time to return fire or to seek cover. When using the FAMAS, Taking a close range secondary weapon is a good idea. Any of the handguns, machine pistols or shotguns would make a fine pairing, and will fill the continuum of ranges at which you can compete. At long range the FAMAS shines in its accuracy, and your only real concern should be snipers - but if you can get a clean burst on target, even at long range, you should be able to eliminate them. Burst weapons rely on shot accuracy, so the optics are the best attachment choice. It's also important to ensure the first burst kills as often as possible, so anything that maximises lethality is a must. Stopping power is almost essential for the FAMAS, then - without it you'll find too many enemies need two bursts to go down, and in the gap inbetween you might find yourself taking fire. Scavenger is less useful than it is with the other assault rifles, as the burst fire modes force you to be more conservative with ammunit
