Fave Weapons ?.

[RimBlock]

So what are your fave weapons.

The starting shotgun was actually pretty good at low level.  It got me out of a number of close scrapes early on.

For snipers I am playing with the M14-EBR (semi-auto) and the MSR.

For ARs I am using an M14-A1 with grenade launcher which is good but is taking a fair few more shots to down the higher level bad guys.  I like the 3 selectable fire modes as well and with the silencer it is fairly god for stealth.

For LMGs I have only got the Type-92 so far but it is actually pretty good.  It takes out a chopper in one mag (75 shots) and is reasonably accurate for a LMG.

I have not yet tried the SMGs.

What are others running with and what do you like about them ?.

Personally I don't see a reason to use an SMG at all in the game, this might change when I unlock the P-90 though.

So far my favourite:

M4A1 - Long barrel, 50 round magazine, 3-round/Semi trigger assy, range finder, foregrip, Regular Red Dot sight (no idea if you can get an ACOG for the AR's?)... its my version in-game of the L119A2 (C8 version of M4). Three round burst is ideal for taking down most enemies including UNIDAD if aimed high chest area even at +70m range. This is permanently silenced so working towards the skill that negates power drop. 

Alongside this I generally use the SIG556 Lama - One magazine will down a helicopter but its unsilenced so only used when being chased! 

Sniper option - MSR with the x6 scope

Pistol - I like the BFF to be honest but again it can't be silenced so other option is FN 5-7 but neither get used hardly.

I found the 50 round AR mag last night and saw a silencer for a LMG as well so will go after that next.  

I have also just got the high level silencer skill which makes a bit of a difference but not massive from what I have seen.

I'm jumping between the TAR-21 with a silencer, full auto, vertical grip, 30 round mag and ACOG style scope and the M4A1 Tactical (mission reward) with silencer, semi-auto, vertical grip, 30 round mag and ACOG style scope.  

For sniper like the bolt-action HTI with a silencer.  Take the silencer off and it maxes most of the ratings and takes out most vehicles (land and choppers) in 1-2 shots.  Haven't tested it on planes, boats or armored vehicles. 

I also have a MP-5 with a silencer, full auto, vertical grip, folded stock, 20 round mag and red dot for CQB as well as a an LMG (don't have member which) with the base mag, red dot and a vertical grip for when I need to lay cover fire or take out vehicles (when not running the HTI).
