Summary

None

Purpose of change

According to History of Weapons and War, as well as a great deal of other sources, the Mas .223, the semi-automatic version of the Famas F1 rifle, is an extremely rare gun, to put it lightly.

In the late 1980s a small number of semiauto FAMAS rifles were made by St Etienne and imported into the US by Century. Most people say 100-125 rifles, although serial number suggest this may have actually been 225-250 rifles. Regardless, they are quite scarce and expensive today.

I would wager you would have a better chance of running across a Russian SVD than a true Famas or a Mas .223 within the reemits of New England, with a grand total of 1 Mas being present for auction on Gun Broker. This falls short of our base entry requirement by 99 entries, meaning that on today’s episode of Boomstick recreates Grey’s Anatomy on guns, our patient is the Mas .223.

Describe the solution

I have simply removed both the Mas 223, as well as its related 25-round magazine, which, surprisingly, didn’t have any actual spawn locations.

Describe alternatives you've considered

I looked high, I looked low, and I looked all across the globe for a suitable replacement for the Mas, but it turns out that French guns in the US are about as common as American assault rifles in France, perhaps even less. I wasn’t going to add unicorn cartridges for antique rifles, sorry .30 French Long, and my eyes glazed over at the thought of adding another 5.56mm black rifle.

Testing

It’s a simple one-step dance of removing the Mas and migrating it. That being said, I fully expect things to detonate.
