Can you guys give me a really good AR set up? I need to switch it up from SMG and I want to mess around with the AR again. ---

AK-12 Suppressor Ergo Of course it all depends what map/game mode you are playing. The AK-12 is a good middle ground assault rifle. ---

If you move a lot while shooting the l85a2 is the best option. Red dot and laser is all you need for it. ---

m416 heavy barrel or flash hider depending on how well u can control vertical recoil American Holo w/ 2x magnifier…if you are encountering alot of losers w/ Flir sights…feel free to swap out the magnifier for a laser or laser/light combo vertical, ergo, or stubby grip It’s a jack of all trades For really far ranges you might want to tap fire a bit more especially when using the magnifier ---

It’s really all dependent on your personal play style, what modes you play and how you attack objectives. For CQ, TDM I prefer an M416, Holo, 2x mag, HB, underslung. I throw 320’s like a quarterback. The class is Assault, so I prefer to assault feelings on the bf. CQC I’ll run an AEK/Famas when all the hrof player hit the field, Or i just open the hatemail box with the P90. All in all the m416 is the all around hit you everywhere boom stick. ---

M416 Coyote Suppressor Stubby The M416 is simply the best weapon in the game due to its versatility. It’s good in almost every situation. Alternately, you can add the HB instead. I find it decreases kill times considerably. ---

M16A4, suppressor, iron sights, nothing else. AK-12. burst mode, suppressor, iron sights, nothing else. M416, suppressor, Kobra. SCAR-H, unsuppressed or suppressed, Kobra, maybe angled grip if you are really struggling. AEK, suppressed, Kobra or iron sights. But only if you wanna feel scrubtastic on a close quarters map. The weapons all really do better without any under barrel or barrel attachments in my opinion. Every once in awhile I’ll try out the SCAR with the angled grip and I always notice I am missing shots that I know I would be making if I was just running it naked, although if I’m going for longer shots with the SCAR the angled grip does help. Laser sights are OK I guess, but it’s not worth how much of a giant target they make you in the long run and turning them off and on constantly throughout a match is annoying. Also, daily reminder that if you decide to run a grenade launcher, your weapon looks way cooler if you use the underslung rail, and if I’m not mistaken it’s quicker to switch back to your rifle if someone surprises you. ---

Choose the sight and that’s it. Although sometimes I will use a stubby because I like to hip fire. ---

If you want the best AR setups, here: AEK - Compensator, Stubby (I recommend for Zavod, Locker, Flood) M16 - Heavy, Ergo (any map) ACE 23 - Heavy, Stubby (any map) All other ARs, Heavy + Stubby Best gun for most CQ maps (descending order of greatness)-\> M16, ACE/M416, AK-12 (burst fire), AR160, AUG, SCAR-H (low ammo count dings it heavily in my opinion). M416 has a better reload than the ACE, slightly less ammo in a mag, and so I suppose it edges the ACE a little. M16 is the best overall CQ gun b/c of the 800RPM, the ease of control, and the quick reload. If you want to go full tryhard, this is the best gun you can use. ---

If you’re use to SMG, and want to move to AR, the FAMAS is a great option. It matches the SMGs in rate of fire and feeling, but gives you a little added distance over all SMGs. -Run a red dot of your choice -Ergo or Stubby -Suppressor (or normal barrel if you like increased velocity) Should do you quite well. I think you’ll be impressed with how similar it is to the SMG class. BUT it does require a slight strategy change; it burns through mags almost every kill, so think of it as a “hit and run” kind of gun. Highly effective!
