G3 for its power, accuracy, and low recoil. I think this weapon is way too overpowered now. ATM it is better than each of the 7.62 marksman rifles. When the G3 has less recoil than the M16 & L85 you know you've messed up somewhere.

The G3 is a .308 Caliber Firearm. A .308 (7.62x51mm) round has about the same kinetic energy at 300 yards down range as a .223 (5.56x45mm) round does when it first exits the muzzel.
I think the G3 stopping power is just fine. You aught to see what a .308 does to Big game, nevermind Humans.
Anyway as for my favorite its still the AKM/AK-47.

I must say I'm very suprized that so many ppl like the QBZ-95 as there best weapon. Its a wonder DICE never made it for there chinese faction, it would have made the chinese maps ever soo much more popular than giving them a AK-47...
They did give them the QBZ support gun, which is the best support gun besides the PKM in vBF2, IMO
I think, the Insurgents and Rebels in the SF pack should have the Ak47 instead of AK101, there are you 4 factions in the expansion, that use identical equipment :/
G3a3 easily, although at short range I love full auto AK47, I seem to manage to rack up alot of kills with it on the none-basrah desert insurgent map whatever it's name is.
QBZ UGL hands down... M16/M203 next and a close third between the G3 and the L85... i like the G3's power.. but its recoil is insane.. and the l85 is pretty good too..
G3 > all as far as I'm concerned. Even in CQB the 7.62 round is extremely evil... Mid range combat I'd give the edge to QBZ-95, my second favorite rifle. My only complaint the -95 is you have to cycle through all the fire modes instead of switching directly to one.
i like the m16a2 but i will like the m16a4 better if they ever get it in to a patch tho i dont like how all other teams besides marines get scopes for there assault riflesweres the 4x acog?
The poll results are interesting and telling
If anything using a 7.62mm NATO weapon should be a love-hate affair, but in PR it's the ultimate weapon - powerful, accurate and easily controllable recoil
More auditing needed?

I've fired the M-16A2 before and its way easier to control than how it is now. The recoil is like a two year old pushing you. Its firing a varmint round, not even legal to hunt with in certain states since it will most likely not kill the target. I have family in the military who use the M-16 on a regular basis and think the M-16 is the only bad part of PR. Sprinting and jumping aside.
