faramon Posted November 29, 2011 Report Share Posted November 29, 2011 Not sure if I would make one myself but it does look pretty cool! Well done and a nice guide Link to post Share on other sites

notrabies Posted November 29, 2011 Report Share Posted November 29, 2011 I'm not the biggest fan of the FAMAS, but I do like the look of it more now. I think It could be a bit better looking with the default G36 iron sights on the rail as well. Link to post Share on other sites
The Bushman Posted November 29, 2011 Report Share Posted November 29, 2011 Nice Job. I made a similar conversion, years ago, for someone. They loved it. I used steel plates and just a rail from the FAMAS scope mount. The G36 hadn't been released back then. Edit: Which FAMAS threaded muzzle is that and where is good to source it?

My BUIS are still being shipped to me, whenever I recieved them, I will upload a new picture Edit: Which FAMAS threaded muzzle is that and where is good to source it? Its a silencer adaptor.

notrabies Posted November 29, 2011 Report Share Posted November 29, 2011 Famas SD front quarter by road_dancer, on Flickr Like this? Yeah, that's exactly what I was thinking of, without those sights the rail looks too thin and plain for my tastes. Link to post Share on other sites
Paleblue Posted November 30, 2011 Report Share Posted November 30, 2011 What if you put a G36 scope on it? I think it's exceptionally smexy. Link to post Share on other sites

G-rar Posted December 16, 2011 Author Report Share Posted December 16, 2011 Again a quick update: Iron sights and Anpeq came in .. now I know how much place there is left for a reddot.. I guess it's going to be a Microdot ^^ Link to post Share on other sites

Zatarra Posted January 23, 2012 Report Share Posted January 23, 2012 sorry to hijack this thread, but can someone point me in the direction of a 9.6volt battery that will fit the TM famas? thanks Link to post Share on other sites
WhiteHawksan Posted January 24, 2012 Report Share Posted January 24, 2012 any 9.6v Mini will fit in the handguard with oodles of room to spare. You could also use a 7.4v LiPo, I'd recomend the Turnigy Nano Brand from Hobby King. You won't have to worry about space as a famas has oodles of room in the hanguard.

G-rar Posted February 2, 2012 Author Report Share Posted February 2, 2012 sorry to hijack this thread, but can someone point me in the direction of a 9.6volt battery that will fit the TM famas? thanks It depends on what type you will use. The TM famas comes with large tamiya connectors. Normally a 8.4v large type is already a tight fit in that handguard! (no space left) So a 9.6v large type will NOT fit! I just ordered XT60 connectors to replace the large tamiya's.. I'm planning to run a 9.6v mini type or a 7.4v lipo 15c (after I changed the connectors to xt60 offcourse ^^).

W1dget Posted February 3, 2012 Report Share Posted February 3, 2012 Wow, that looks *fruitcage* amazing. Unfortunately being a french gun every fire mode is safe, isnt it? Really, top notch work. Prefer that to the millions of operator looking m4's done out there! Link to post Share on other sites
