HK36 vs M4A1

at least by the lobby gun stat system, the HK36 is a better gun for seals than the M4A1 in both accuracy and fire rate. What i dont understand is that both are very similiar in what attachments they have (M203 vs GL), but people still use the M4 a lot more. Is it that Zipper's gun stats are different from how it actually is in the game?

I prefer the HK36 because of it's 2 shot fire mode and the faster fire rate. From the feel of it, it feels like the fire rate is a lot faster, but im not totally sure accuracy. I've taken out whole teams by myself with the HK36, while i can barely get 1 or 2 with the M4A1. Whats everyones preferance of the two?

Anybody know which is 'actuallly' better stat wise?

Thanks

I think people use the M4 more because they are use to it. It has been in previous titles where as the HK36 is new. I personly prefer the HK36. I have never been able to use the M4A1.

I've used the HK36 a couple of times but for some reason I just find I'm more accurate with the M4. I guess I just like to keep my selection of weapons to a bare minimum so I just stick with the M4 because I'm used to it.

I'v tried the HK36 and I can only get a few kills with it (sometimes even an MVP) but I prefer the M4A1 much more over it, it's my second favorite gun but nothing comes close to the 552!

HK36 is a fun gun/great gun to use in closer area's and it gets it's work done from afar as well, but I find myself using the IW-80A2 more often. Just like the HK36 and M4A1 but just better in my own personal opinion. The two-shot burst comes in handy though when you are sniping with the HK36 or just wanting to have fun.

The G36 is definately the better gun in most circumstances but I seem to find that it just isn't as good at distances of over 50 metres when compared to the M4... and the fact that every time you die you have to change your fire rate to achieve fully automatic is irritating too (although its great when you kill people with bursts of only 2 or 3 shots when you don't mean to)

But as mOB says, the IW is better, unless you want a grenade launcher, which thankfully most people don't

my choices while in the game have always been deciding :

M4A1, M8, IW, HK36, M16..

kind of hard choice really because they are all good guns...and i'm good with all of them in some sort of way.

M4A1 with m203 and medium scope rocks
M8 with medium scope and airburst or silencer is pretty good
IW with high scope/laser or mediumscope/silencer is good
Hk36 with Gl-36, medium scope, front grip , laser..

M16 is just unreal ...i think i never got recoil with this gun..great range and good for sniping as well. Only problem is that i'm not used to close range battle with this gun.

The choice is between the M4 and the HK36. Leave all others out.
