Running or crouching, I still feel the front grip is the better choice.

No, the front grip is ONLY good if your NOT moving, otherwise it sprays like a gun with nothing on it. The rifle laser is good for moving around (strafing and running) and shooting, whereas i dont think it helps at all if your crouching (well probably a bit, but not too much).

Agree to disagree, as I will use the front grip over the rifle laser any day. My stats will show I know how to use my weapons, too.

I'm not arguing, nor am I saying you can't use the front grip. But its a fact that it is completly worthless if your shooting at full auto and moving with it and a silencer.

How is it a fact? Perhaps it's just me, but I play much better with a front grip and supressor than I do with a rifle laser and supressor. I don't sit in one spot, so, in theory, the rifle laser should be the best choice for me. Hmm, maybe I'm just weird...

It is true, I tried yesterday. I used the idub with a grip + silencer 1 and its perfectly accurate if you're not moving. But when you move it has the same accuracy as if it only had a silencer. The laser doesn't help much if you aren't moving, but when you do move the accuracy goes up a little bit, noticeably though. Same thing with the stg.

All I know is, if I have a red dot in place of the front grip, I can't hit anything.

Lol, it is amazing how you guys are still talking about this. There has always been a thread on this ever since I join Socom3.com lol.

I think the front grip is better, in all aspects. I've only used the laser a couple of times and that was before I had unlocked the Grip and when I use them both together.

Whether or not a "test" shows that the rifle laser is the better choice, I will never believe that. A "test" is not the real thing, period.

I'm not saying one is better than the other overall, because they're both equal.

Each are better for different playstyles, for me its the RL becuase i strafe when i shoot. Jesus people
