As a seal, my 2 favorite guns are the Mk 48 and the HK 36... hard to pick one of the two ^_^

The M4 is alright, pretty tight crosshairs so there's no chance of spray and pray, and the power is alright... it's not as powerful as an AK or M14 or Mk 48 or anything like that, but it's alright.the only thing I find good about it is it is the only weapon that can house the airburst Grenade launcher, which comes in handy for clearing rooms you can't shoot a gl at easily... like the bomb pickup room in Citadel ^_^ Set the range, take a step closer, fire, the round blows up just past the doorway, knocking out whoever is waiting for you

The m8 is a good mix of the two, it's like a weak full-auto M16
But it has a silencer...

Ummmm... M-16 is undoubtedly the best. People say that the fact that it only has the 3 shot burst is bad... Please. It takes all of a month to get to the point where you can fire basically full auto without even noticing it. PLUS, since you have it on burst, there is MUCH less recoil. AND the fact that it has great range, great accuracy, and you can put a high scope on it, makes it the best gun, no contest. M-16 with high scope and rifle laser > everything else.

Bah, the M16 shoots 115 meters... most rifles shoot 95... I'd hardly call that a convincing factor... it's nice that you can equip a high scope and all, because then you don't have to worry about the scope wandering as much, but I can snipe with my AK or Mk 48 just as easily...

Scopes arent worth the trouble. I was going with the good ol M4 + suppressor + front grip and simply running and gunning, and im on top or near the top nearly every game. I switched to the IW + suppressor + front grip recently, but i havent seen much difference between that and the IW.

M8 just isnt worth it, if your going to run around, go with the m4.

since the laser sight is the only accuracy-enhancing mod for the AK-47, I attach a scope just because there's a free spot, and I can see farther, and it doesn't lower my accuracy too much.

how bout this: when your running with your greater than all weapons, you get sniped, or hit with a tow.

i dont like the m8 as much, mostly due to severe recoil.

Don, the reason a lot of people dont like the m8 as much isnt because its new, but because it has horrible recoil, it cant fit a front grip, and did i mention its weak with bad recoil?

my favorite gun is the M8. i didnt like it when i first used it but lately ive picked it up and tore up almost every game i played as a seal. M16 is great with its sniping abilities but i think close combat it gets destroyed especially when people run around the with the f90s. i think that m4 is horrible even with the front grip i cant get used tot that gun.
