French FAMAS-F1
The “Fusil d’Assaut de la Manufacture d’Armes de St-Etienne” is a bullpup 5.56mm rifle adopted by the French military and also exported in small numbers to Senegal and the United Arab Emirates. Unusual amongst 5.56mm assault rifles in NATO usage, the FAMAS-F1 uses a proprietary 25-round magazine instead of the NATO-standard 30-round STANAG magazine. The new version now in production by GIAT (the FAMAS-G2) uses STANAG magazines as well as incorporating several other improvements.
