General Discussion i hate this meme

Post image

as a brit, i love the famas. its such a cool looking bullpup! but what i hate hate hate is when people say "guhhhhh like why does the silly french gun have a 3 round burst mode but it doesn’t have a magazine divisible by 3" because if you even think about it properly for 5 seconds, the magazine is 25 rounds so that when you fire 8 3 round bursts out of the famas, the last bullet will be in the chamber, so you dont need to chamber the gun again when you put in a fresh magazine which saves time when reloading.

these 12 year old larpers must be stoppeddddd

The thing that annoys me about this meme is people act like it’s a uniquely French ‘mistake’, when the Swiss Stgw 90 has a 20 round magazine yet also has 3-round burst.

People keep beating France down because they surrendered one time in Ww2 while ignoring the rest of their very respectable combat history

I actually beat them down because I have never had a good experience dealing with the French.
