best all around assault rifle

[Brig]

thought this could be interesting. What assault rifle do you think is the best? are there any perks which greatly increase the usefulness of the weapon?

i think the g36c is the best assault rifle. it is relative fast, you can draw it quickly, does a lot of damage, good wall penetration, and really easy to use iron sights. the mp44 is not so good by itself due to a lack in attachments and slow firing speed, however with double tap, it is an accurate, quick and powerful weapon.

AK-47, easiest ironsights ever, great penetration, nice rate of fire, just no bad sides to it, doesnt need attachements.

or the g2, just for shits and giggles

I'd say m4 has better iron sights than ak especially due to the low recoil. 

 

For me, I have three main Assault rifles, because each have their strengths.

 

G36 for close range. It's the best for dealing with Sub users. Decent pen, and alright iron sights.

 

M4. High rate of fire, very stable, accurate, easy iron sight/low recoil. Shit pen.

 

Ak47. Nice power. Decent pen. Great long range to boot. No bueno for close range.

 

 

IMO there is no all round AR. It boils down to style.

think sid got it right. the ak47 is a good gun, but the fire rate is too slow by itself for use up close.

Please don't use the negative term that only the media invented.

The G36c is great with hipfire, m4 not so much, and ak eh... even with steady aim, although the ak is pretty good, i find myself using m4 with acog or red dot sight for easy killing at a distance

This is also a COD discussion referring to in game guns, using in game terminology for the classification system. Don't need real world politics down here.

Ak/M4 aren't really hipfire close range weapons, though. So steady aim is pretty useless when in combo. Good things to use would be bandolier, or things like uav jammer. Red dot on M4 is pretty decent, but you can be just as accurate with silencer, and as bonus, you minimize radar reveals.

 

G36 is amazeballs with hipfire though. My new fav toy for a bit.

guess im the only M16 fan around? it takes control to use it well with the three round burst and with steady aim is nasty. try using a Ny Sight hack. I used to use one for dual weilding on mw2.  heres what you do.

 

1. Bring up your iron sights.

2. Take the corner of a rolling paper, glue side and lick it, placing it on the tip of your center post.

3. Drop your iron sights

4.A ciggerette butt width away( if it were growing from your screen) on the left right top and bottom side place another piece of Rolling paper, sticking them to the screen.

 

Voila! counter strike like crosshairs great for hip firing!

I really like the M4 and the AK. In fact, those are the only assault rifles I really use.

 

The AK loses strength with a Red Dot sight (I think 20%) so I use the launcher with it.

 

The M4 gets the red-dot with steady aim. Makes a great all-around gun. With Bandolier and Sleight of Hand it becomes a monster that you can maneuver with ease.

 

If I had to choose one to use forever and never go back, I would take the M4.

Ha, I used to do this for using the Scout open-sight in Counter-Strike circa 2002. That was the best gun in the game if you learned how to use it.

 

This also works for getting used to grenade launcher in COD4. You don't need the cross for that though, just the vertical line.

Hey u n i will get along.. my steam is detegot3hpirate

The people in the beginners lobby know my class is a G36c with Red dot. I love the gun: high power (esp. with stopping power), accuracy at range, controllable/steady at range, and not bad fire rate. I don't use it for the hip fire often, but it takes people out from medium-long range very easily (sometimes I think too easily!).

 

The AK is nice, but even with stopping power it takes a few shots in hardcore to kill from range, and it's not that easily controllable. 

 

M4 is nice but aiming down the sights takes some time. 

 

As far as the MP44/StG44 goes, I love this gun as well. If you are accurate, this is a great resource as it kills in one shot (hc) almost anywhere! 

[Suckbag]

The M4 all day.  It has such little recoil and the fact that I only play hardcore negates the slightly lower damage output.  It's not hard to make it a poor man's M16 from mid-far distance, either.

I like to play pretty vanilla classes though, for the most part.  Red dot,  Bandolier, UAV jammer, Extreme Conditioning.

I think the best assault rifle is a question of personal taste! Try out what is the best for yourself...
