Road_Dancer Posted October 10, 2011 Report Share Posted October 10, 2011 As my previous contribution to this thread is back on page one, and the link no longer works... Famas SD front quarter by road_dancer, on Flickr Famas01 by road_dancer, on Flickr Internally upgraded to about 320ish FPS, Stanag mag well conversion (only fits hicaps at the mo'), and with G36 top rail. My other FAMAS project is almost complete externally... Internally, it needs a gearbox, as the motor burnt out, and I need to decide on a tightbore.

mightyjebus Posted October 11, 2011 Report Share Posted October 11, 2011 (edited) here's something you don't see everyday.... it's a RIS rail for the front lower of a FAMAS. Edited October 11, 2011 by mightyjebus Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Road_Dancer Posted October 11, 2011 Report Share Posted October 11, 2011 Ooooo... A genuine, not bodged together from other parts, RIS for a FAMAS? Where in the hell did you find that? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
mightyjebus Posted October 11, 2011 Report Share Posted October 11, 2011 i've got four with more on the way. the one in the picture is missing a bolt but the others are complete and brand new! Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Road_Dancer Posted October 11, 2011 Report Share Posted October 11, 2011 Are those designed for the F or SV front grips? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
crackisbad Posted October 11, 2011 Report Share Posted October 11, 2011 So R_D those are hands down the best looking FAMASes(? ) I have seen. The number one thing that has always putt me off is the ridiculous looking (IMO) carry handle on all airsoft versions. I am guessing yours are custom made with G36 rails? Or are there some aftermarket parts that I am unaware of? Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Road_Dancer Posted October 11, 2011 Report Share Posted October 11, 2011 (edited) Thanks for the comments! I agree that the standard handle looks... Poor. Inspired by both the FAMAS Felin, and Hardcoil's 'Omnicol XA-23' (sadly the site is down now, but I managed to find this on the wayback machine http://web.archive.org/web/20060117031050/http://www.hardcoil.net/airsoft/guns/xa23.html ) Yes, G36c Rail grafted on to the first, after sawing off the standard carry handle. Fitted with a few bits of metal and some body filler, and is rock solid. Also fitted the supressor can to give the impression of an integral supressor. The DMR version has the P90 lower grafted, inspired by the Omnicol, with the scope rail made out of some scrap metal from an old filing cabinet divider.

crackisbad Posted October 11, 2011 Report Share Posted October 11, 2011 Wow, that is very involved but very well executed! I like the extra detail you put into your rails as they seem better integrated into the gun. Maybe I am not seeing it, but what did you end up doing with the charging handle?

Road_Dancer Posted October 11, 2011 Report Share Posted October 11, 2011 (edited) On the one with the G36 Rail, it's still there, just cut down. I need to fit an actual handle to it, I was going to go with the HK theme and use an MP5 cocking handle mounted onto the existing cocking handle. But I seem to have lost it... On the DMR build, I need to cut a hole in the heat shield (from a 3/4 size Spas 12 springer *laughs*) and mount the charge handle through it. I was going to then mount the original handle at 90 degrees so that it comes out of the right side. Edited October 11, 2011 by Road_Dancer Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Zombie00 Posted October 11, 2011 Report Share Posted October 11, 2011 I wanted to share this with some other FAMAS enthusiast. http://www.petitiononline.co.uk/petition/develop-a-new-airsoft-version-of-the-famas-g2/3455 If we get a fair amount of votes we might be able to convince some manufacturer to make it happen, we need to spread the initiative!

Brooxy Posted October 11, 2011 Report Share Posted October 11, 2011 Signed. I don't own a FAMAS at the moment, but a model with no creak and a redesigned gearbox would make me pick one up straight away... Quote Link to post Share on other sites
Road_Dancer Posted October 16, 2011 Report Share Posted October 16, 2011 Here we go, finished at last! The L22A4 Advanced Marksman Rifle. (Or FAMAS / P90 Frankengun ) Quote Link to post Share on other sites

Road_Dancer Posted November 11, 2011 Report Share Posted November 11, 2011 Many thanks, I'm very happy with the results. There are a few tweaks here and there that I might change (Especially with the dummy charging handle), but the way that the P90 parts mesh so well to the FAMAS parts just works so well IMHO.

renegadecow Posted November 29, 2011 Report Share Posted November 29, 2011 Not my bugle, but I did make the rail set. Don't know what it's called though but does exist in real steel. Quote Link to post Share on other sites
G-rar Posted November 29, 2011 Report Share Posted November 29, 2011 Nice one renegadecow! The paintjob is pretty nice as well! I made a post in the technical section on how I build my FAM36.

It is weird to think that a 54 page picture thread includes maybe only 3-4 brands (TM, Maruzen, JP) in it - more than 95% of which is TM. Quote Link to post Share on other sites

HJA1512 Posted January 1, 2012 Report Share Posted January 1, 2012 Sweet RIS. Where did you find that for sale, french eBay? The scope mount looks just like the Marui one and not like the RS one though http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/9/97/French_Army_FAMAS_%2B_Aimpoint.jpg Quote Link to post Share on other sites
