OK weapons fanatics I've decided to make a little poll to see what's your preference in assault rifles. I've put as many options as possible, anyway enough talk VOTE!
 
And have people actually used them? Or are we just basing this poll on games/movies/[mis]conceptions?

Debatable, but it is DEFINITELY the most economic and plentiful.

Yep, you're absolutely right!:cheese:
 
Steyr aug / sig 550?

well from the choices there i have voted ak47 due to it's very simple formula for success, there are more ak47 variants in the world than all the other guns put together :)
They are an almost flawless design, cheap to produce and repair the only disadvantage to the ak47 is the round it fires, a bit short range and lowish stopping power compared to other calibres.
 
Heh... you've got the Counter-Strike rifles with the only votes on the poll :p

Shorter range yes, "lowish stopping power" not really, at close-medium ranges it outdoes 5.56 almost all the time.

I havent used them in real life, but i do know factual info on em, not CS stuff(of which most is wrong). Next weekend one of my dads friends is gonna bring an FN FAL i can shoot, and im soon gonna buy a WASR-10 (romanian made ak47)




P.S. Redneck, where is the HK G3?!Add it ASAP

I was comparing 7.62 NATO, much better stopping power, i'd have a HK G3 anyday.

Oh, .308, definately much better but with the bigger round comes the problem of a smaller magazine capacity, more recoil, and being able to carry less ammunition. Aparently some soldiers say they cant take the recoil of the .308.....i think thats BS
 
Pfft, you fail at making good options..
Anyway, my favourite is the AK-74M, 5.45 Calibre/mm, m/s 900, bullet weight 8 g, weighs in at 3.4kgs.:)
Beautiful weapon, (un)luckily, due to Swedish weapons law, I can't use assault rifles/submachineguns, I can only use pistols at the gunrange.:(
However, I hope to get to shoot with an AK-74M later on, perhaps while on stay in another country.:p
I'm actually looking at buying official deactivated AKs off IZHMASH, legally they don't require license in countries like the UK etc, but I'm not so sure about Sweden, I'll have to call and check.:)
 
although the SA80A1 was a piece of crap, the SA80A2 is ment to be one of the best rifles available
 
G36

I picked AK47, coz that's the only one I've heard of.
Good lord no.

Years ago when its durability was not even CLOSELY matched, MAYBE. But not today.
 
The "best" would definitely be the AK-47. Cheap to make, reliable, doesn't jam and can take anything you throw at it. You can't go wrong.
 
HK G36 only because WHERE IS THE ****ING K-2? BEST ASSUALT RIFLE IN THE WORLD!
 
Out of those the FN2000, even though I have never fired one. I am just partial to the design.

You know you're just stepping into it, right?

I mean, a redneck asking about guns.

Anyway, I think CAR15's are cool. I've never shot one, but from what i've read, they're better than the M4, versatility wise.

Ak's are fun to shoot :D
 
I picked the AK47... only because its a really cool cold war-esque symbol.

And the M4... is that actually an assault rifle? I thought the M16 was an assault rifle, and the M4 was more of an SMG version.. probably way off though

Yeah, it's just a carbine used for "special" situations where an M16 is too heavy.
 
I voted ak47, just because of its huge price/performance ratio. I can't say I know that much about the other guns...

voted for none of em.

my favorite is the israeli tavor http://www.quarry.nildram.co.uk/Tavor.jpg

it is one sexy gun and if there's one place in the world you can count on to use weapons that are effective and work, its isreal
:O that looks like the gun from fear.

It's just more compact, sleeker version used for short and medium range combat.
 
H&K G3A3 (obvisouly the norwegian ag3-variant) for one shot=one kill goodness. +It's the only rifle I have extensive experience with.

Now, if only the ehvl russians would invade so I could get some live targets.... :sniper:

.bog.

The L85a2, as an all round weapon, beats all the listed options easily. It loses to all of them on weight, weighing in at a "heavy" 9lb and loses to the Ak47 interms of stopping power at shortrange and reliability. Stopping power is more a problem with the calibre of the rifle then the rifle itself.

As for everyone choosing the AK47, it is a good weapon but you'll soon lose heart with it when you can't hit a mansized target from over 200metres away, an l85 and an m16 can drop a guy at 600+.
