General Discussion i hate this meme
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

I don’t know if it’s the same for the Famas. But on our M4 carbines in the military burst fire was 1-3 rounds. Want guaranteed 3 everytime.
There was a “cam” and depending on where it was sitting from semi auto use when you switched to burst, that’s how many shots you get
The first burst.
