Fire mode is controlled by a selector within the trigger guard, with three settings:  safe (central position), single shot (to the right), and automatic fire (to the left). Automatic fire can be in three-shot bursts (''rafale'') or fully automatic; this is determined by another selector, located under the housing and behind the magazine.

The FAMAS G2 weighs {{convert|3.8|kg|lb|2|abbr=on}}. The G1 and G2 have a large, grip-length trigger guard like that of the [[Steyr AUG]] to allow easy access to the trigger when wearing gloves.

Both F1 and G2 models of the FAMAS feature a bipod attached to the upper hand-guard.

The FAMAS-G2 and some F1 sport a  "polyvalent hand-guard" which features a standard [[NATO Accessory Rail]], allowing a variety of sights to be mounted, notably red dot sights and night vision units.
