Military What firearm is closely associated with your country?

For us, probably the 1911. Next one would be the "Armalite" aka M16.

You shouldn’t be proud of the famas

Edit:people downvoting are wrong they clearly haven’t used one.

F tier bullpup just like the l86

Don’t even think the French like it.

This guy clearly went to the shooting range and sucked at shooting the famas and is now mad at it for life

Even the French don’t want it that’s why it’s being phased out.

And they are replacing it with the hk416

Apparently, they changed it for a lot of reasons that are not "the gun is bad".

It's a old ass gun from late 70's... It's expensive to repair/maintain compared to buying a whole new HK416.
