The stats for the Selbaslater are better but the slower rate of fire and less control seriously gets me killed. I think i prefer the Mondragon even though it only has 10 rounds.  
What do you guys prefer?

The Mondragon Storm is the only weapon I use at the moment. I find that the Selba-whatever Optical to kick like a mule and be wildly inconsistent at times.

I heard that it needs a buff. I’m a level 10 Medic already but decided not to purchase it since it only has 5 bullets per mag. I’m personally not that an accuate of a shooter to be able to use the 5 bullets to my advantage. The bullet count per mag is simply much too low.

It’s excellent. You can dump all five rounds very quickly (300RPM I believe) without losing a lot of accuracy. As others have mentioned, the problem is the magazine. All things being equal though, the 1906 will beat out the 1916 at any range.

I agree. I typically use the Selbstlader Optical, but mix it up with the 1906. My stats with it are about equal even without the optics. Definitely has better range and control and if you use up your 5 rounds you get some sidearm practice.

Selb marksman, every day of the week.

For a touch more vertical recoil, you are getting the trade off of a ton more ammo. Definitely worth it.

Do the math. I stopped counting after my 100th Service Award for the Selb Marksman

Both guns serve a slightly different purpose, are situational and depend on how you want to play. Saying one is better than the other is just silly.
