On the contrary, the Famas internals ARE special - meaning replacement parts are a bitch to find. Motors, gears, bushings.....all are unique to the Famas and many parts aren't interchangeable with the newer V2 and V3 mechboxes. If you break something internally, be prepared to shell out some serious cash for repairs.

I've used a FAMAS pretty extensively - and I'd say go with a G36 if those are your 2 choices.
