lol, i have to disagree. I love the looks of the stock MAS. I don't even particularily like a rail on it (top or bottom, or side).

Crack is bad for you. You know that right?

We both know I actually dont do anything here at work. Accept for today I had a pile of reports to analyse. But since that Ive just been playing battlefield 2 and bumming around on asc.

Yeah I was amazed you had work today. Who knew?!

For some reason my stock FAMAS (chronoe'd at 265 FPS) is getting the same range as my upgraded AUG Mil (356 FPS). I know velocity and accuracy don't have that much correlation, but the AUG has a longer inner barrel and such.
I'm sure there's some reason that I'm too stupid to get.

That's strange. Higher FPS should mean longer range. Are you using the same BB's, etc?

What's wrong with it being French? The French army actually kick ass.

Yep, both times it was Excel .2s. Same sort of results with Excel .25s, same range.

However, my FAMAS has also got the same range as a Redwolf Custom SPR (approx. 480 FPS, round guess) a friend of mine spent $2000 on. It pissed him off more then a little.

You sure? Does it go through the bottom of a can? If it does, it's not shooting 265.

100% sure. We had our organizer chrono both the FAMAS and the AUG, the FAMAS chronoed a constant ~265 and the AUG chronoed a constant (seriously, I thought it was stock when I bought it) 365.

He's got one of these-



Or something much like it.

You didn't answer my question (well sort of, not really), but ok.

Never fired it at the bottom of a can, I'm afraid. That method isn't very reliable, actual chronies are a bit better.

I just woke up from a nap actually.

Holy unrelated post Batman.

Holy shit! I'm not the only one who's noticed this! I've made kills with my FAMAS at far greater ranges than with my G36. My 'MAS is lightly upgraded, but shoots only 5 fps harder than the '36, which has a tightbore and should in theory be more accurate. Oddness.
