1. MP40
The MP40 is the best of the best, and if you rock it with the GROZA, you’ll be a killing machine. Boasting a 20-round magazine and an 83 rate of fire, you’ll blow people away before they even know you’re around.
Damage is a moderate 48 and the reload speed is 48, too.
Considered a “submachine gun,” the only attachment you can get is the magazine. A scope would have been nice, but you’re stuck with a 17 accuracy and a range of 22. If you’re an SMG fan, this is the gun to use, especially for close-range combat.
New and seasoned players will benefit from the MP40 because it fits with any suitable playstyle.
You will want to combine this rifle with Scar, AWM, or the GROZA for some sick damage. Recoil on this SMG is high, so you’ll find that keeping your aim steady can be difficult.
2. AWM
Want reliability? The AWM is your best option. You’ll find this sniper rifle to be the game’s most reliable, and it’s best suited when you’re at long range and are able to zero in on stationary targets.
Damage is a staggering 90, as is the rifle’s accuracy. The range hits 91, but reload speed is 34, and the rate of fire is 27. The magazine has just five shots, but in the right hands, you’ll be able to snipe targets all day long.
Attachments include:
- Silencer
- Muzzle
- Magazine
- Scope
Lethal in any battleground, the only downside of this sniper rifle is that it takes a long time to reload – the downfall of all sniper rifles. When combining your AWM, you’ll want to pick up the MP40 and the M1873 shotgun for some staggering firepower.
You won’t find this rifle in the Free Fire diamond shop. Instead, the rifle falls from airdrops at the safe zone edge, so they’re hard to get but well worth the effort if you want to be a beast on the battleground.
3. M1887
Want to pump out massive damage? The M1887 is a great choice, with 100 damage. The double-caliber shotgun is perfect for anyone that doesn’t mind close-range combat. One hit will destroy your enemies.
Armor penetration is 54, and range is 21, so you need to enjoy close-range gameplay. The fire rate is 42, so it’s fast for a shotgun. You won’t be able to use any attachments – you really don’t need to with this excessively high power.
Combine this shotgun with the stability and accuracy of the XM8 and you’ll be obliterating everyone on the field.
The M1887 is one of the shotguns that outperform every shotgun in its class. If you come across an enemy, you can easily 2-shot kill them. Damage and range are great for a shotgun, but you need to make every shot count because the two-round capacity can quickly leave you with an empty gun.
In the right hands, the M1887 can destroy the competition, but you’ll definitely want to pair it with a higher magazine capacity in the event that you miss a few shots.
4. M60
The M60 has an AOE and high damage. Packing 60 rounds in the magazine, this assault rifle may not be as powerful as the Groza, but it is a great all-around AR. The rifle only has one attachment magazine, so there is little in the way of upgrading.
The magazine makes this AR a great choice, but it’s still a light machine gun that functions best at mid-range.
Damage stands at 56, so it’s not overly powerful, but it has a range of 65 for nice mid-range kills. The rate of fire is 56, while reload speed is 48 and accuracy is 43. If you don’t end up too far away, this is a deadly assault rifle with a lot of room for error thanks to its massive magazines.
If you want to get the best combo in the game, you’ll want to mix the P90 and M60, but some prefer the M60 and M40 together. Give the combo a try for yourself to see what you like. You’ll need to spend 30 diamonds to get this rifle, which can be purchased from the armory shop and is found in the Spirited Overseers Weapons Loot Crate.
5. GROZA
GROZA is a beast of a weapon that does the damage of an assault rifle but acts much like an SMG. If you’re looking for the best assault rifle in the game, this is it. The one downside of this rifle, and why so many people put it further down on their list, is that it’s only available to you through airdrops.
Due to the risks that the rifle won’t drop, you should try getting some of the other rifles on the list.
You can add a bunch of attachments to this rifle:
- Foregrip
- Muzzle
- Magazine
- Scope
- Silencer
The range is a major strength at 75, while damage is 61 and the rate of fire is 56. Reload speed is 48, the magazine holds 30 rounds and accuracy stands at 54. If you like to be in short to mid-range, the GROZA is a great option.
Two strong combos for this rifle include the MP4 or the Mag7.
