(adsbygoogle = window.adsbygoogle || []).push({}); L86 LSW- This is a great gun but sadly underused. Many find the recoil uncontrollable. The way to counter this is to shoot in bursts. Since it is so powerful, 1 quick burst should kill them if you run Stopping Power. It has a not bad size clip that should kill 3-4 people. It also reloads extremely fast for an LMG, Even without Sleight of Hand. It is accurate in these short bursts too, And can be used as a sniper rifle if held down in a position. I recommed running a grip all the time and possibly blinging a red dot depending on your views of the ironsight.

RPD- The most mainstream of the LMGs, Mostly from its high damage and little recoil. Absoloutely great for getting several people at once. Decent size clip but really slow reload rate. Kills in just a few bullets when single firing at a far target. Because of the direction of the recoil, Gets alot of headshots easily when aiming at the chest. I would recommend just running the grip, As the iron sights are excellent. Silencer can work as well but would take away your long distance quite a bit.


MG4- Another sadly underused LMG, This baby has a high fire rate and little recoil. I would compare it to the M4A1 in the fact that the damage isn't top notch, But the amount of recoil and accuracy more than make up for it. Large clip size but long reload time. Absoloutely no recoil with a grip. If you don't like the m16 iron sights, I would suggest a red dot.

AUG HBAR- I feel silly listing this as an LMG when it is most reminiscent of the AR classes. High damage, little recoil but small clip. Not as good for taking on multiple enemies with it but still possible. Pretty easy gun to use, I would recommend extended mags.


M240- "We call this next item "The Fecalator." One look at it, and the target shits his or her pants." - Dogma

The least used and my personal favorite, The m240. The fire rate on this gun makes the ammo run out quick so you may be doubling back to reload, but it is worth it. Because this gun kicks side to side you can easily take out the target and his buddy beside him in one short flurry. Hard to use long range but a beast at medium and shortranges, It kills quickly and its recoil is its advantage. I strongly recommend you at least get the grip and dot blinged on this gun before you discount its worth. Silencer not recommended.

A few other points: While Stopping Power DOES help, It is not necessary on most of these guns, Perhaps the MG4. Silencers can be used but i would only recommend them on the MG4, Aug Hbar and the RPD. Extended mags seem silly but are fun as hell for ripping a place apart when coupled with FMJs. FMJs are not needed seeing as most of these have enough penetration to hit those targets anyway but it certainly doesn't hurt.


If you don't like the stinger, an AT4 against a harrier will bring it close enough that a few bullets from a SP LMG will take it out.


Let me know what you guys think and if this helped anyone :mrgreen:

Thanks to firegrip for this.

Actually someone made this signature for me, it is called a scanline, and they made it for me for free but I have not seen them making them lately so I am not sure if they do or not still.

Anyways if I see someone making them I will send you a link so you can ask them if they can make you one or not.
