The primary weapon is the gun you will be using the most. There are several types of primary weapons. This includes Assault Rifles, Submachine Guns, Machine Guns, and Sniper Rifles. The manufacturer's names are not included in-game.

The tables summarize the ten statistics of each weapon. Aspects in which the weapon excels are marked blue, and aspects that the weapon greatly lacks are marked red.

Assault rifles are the most popular weapon type in Combat Arms. They have well-balanced statistics, and can be used a variety of situations. Assault rifles have an approximate maximum range of 100 metres, which can be measured using the ACOG TA1 Scope. Attempting to shoot any further will see your bullets disappear.

Common Name: M16

This gun isn't quite on par with the others because it is the default gun and costs no GP to maintain. It has a high rate of fire and fair recoil, but the its damage is quite low. The M16 is the only assault rifle besides the SG550 (and then only at range) that kills in more than four shots.

Still, the M16 isn't a totally horrible gun, and you can still get kills with it if you are poor and don't have the GP to rent something better. The M16 can be fitted with all Modifications.

It is recommended that you do not attach a silencer, because it will cause the M16A3 to be a borderline 5-6 hit kill.

Common Name: M4

The main reason why some people enjoy using the M4A1 is because of its ridiculously low recoil. Your crosshair will go up about a millimeter, and then rock side to side at a barely noticeable strength. The side recoil is completely eliminated if you attach and use a scope.

The low recoil is balanced by relatively weak damage, although it still gives a four-shot kill. The M4A1 can be attached with all Modifications.

The M4A1 is now purchasable at the Black Market for a permanent usage period. This permanently replaces the M16A3.

Common Name: M4 CQBR

As a Supply Case weapon, it could take you a good amount of GP to actually get this gun. An improved version of the M4A1, the M4A1 CQBR has even less recoil (as if the M4A1 has a lot at all). It is slightly more portable, has a higher firing rate, and can be drawn faster.

Common Name: M416

This very expensive rifle is almost the same thing as an M4A1 CQBR, except that you can just buy it with GP rather than try Supply Case after Supply Case. It has very low recoil, has a good rate of fire, but lacks in power and effective range. You will not be able to snipe anybody with this weapon from a far distance, so keep your enemies in close to mid-range.

Common Name: M416 CQB

This is an upgrade to the M416 that is lighter, draws faster, and has even less recoil. Considering that the regular M416 already has nearly no recoil, the difference is hardly noticeable. It comes with a built in iTech Reflex Sight which cannot be removed.

Like the M416, this gun doesn't have a long effective range, and is best for spraying

Common Name: AK

This is the second strongest assault rifle. Capable of a three-hit kill, it is deadly in the hands of a skilled user. To add to the damage, the AK47 also features the second highest accuracy of all Assault Rifles.

The AK47's damage and accuracy is counterbalanced by bad statistics in many other areas. The recoil is very strong and can get out of hand (bursting instead of spraying helps to control it), the rate of fire is slow, the crosshair gets absolutely huge, and its not very portable.

The AK-47 is now purchasable at the Black Market for a permanent usage period. This permanently replaces the M16A3.

Common Name: AK103

This is an improvement on the AK47 that could take you lots of GP to get from a supply case. On the other hand, you could get lucky and receive an AK103 on the first try. Basically, this gun is the same as the AK47, but with drastically reduced recoil.

The AK103 is also capable of burst-fire. Since the gun is a three-shot kill anyways, if you use burst mode and aim well, you can kill people with one click of the mouse.

Common Name: AK74

A toned-down, or CQB version of the AK47. The damage is reduced from a 3-hit kill to a strong 4-hit kill. Recoil is reduced and goes slightly more "everywhere", and the crosshair can still get quite big. The gun also fires with a very distinct and loud crashing sound, so it is hard to be stealthy without a silencer.

Overall, the AK74U is a very balanced combination of all statistics. It can be fitted with all modifications.

Common Name: SCAR

Similar to the M4A1, this yellow and slightly strange looking gun is low on recoil. It has hardly any up recoil, but it does have quite noticeable side recoil. It cannot be used to spray-snipe at far range like the M4A1 can, because of the relatively hefty side recoil (alternates left and right quickly, making it harder to aim). It is a weak four shot kill, only ever so slightly stronger than the M4A1, but every other stat is a fair balance.

This is also one of the few guns capable of burst fire. The SCAR-L can be fitted with all mods. Adding a scope will not negate its side recoil.

Common Name: G36 (often incorrectly called the G3, which is a different gun altogether)

This is a toned down, more balanced version of the AK47. It deals the strongest four-hit kill and has very high accuracy. However, like the AK47, the G36E lacks in firing rate and portability. The strange recoil pattern causes the gun to kick everywhere, making it difficult to handle.

The G36E costs an extra 150 GP than the other assault rifles because it has a built-in scope. This scope has the range of a sniper rifle, which makes the G36E also useful for long-range sniping. When using the gun in this manner, you must fire single shots, or else the recoil makes it useless. The G36E can accomodate all modifications except new scopes.

Common Name: G36C

Another weapon of the G36 line, the G36C does not feature the long-sniper range scope of the G36E. This gun is modified for close combat, with a higher rate of fire and increased portability. There is also a top rail for attaching scope modifications. Also, the "everywhere" and "side" recoil start after about 5 shots, rather than 2 (of the original G36E).

Common Name: AUG

The AUG-A1 is a four-shot kill and has a very high rate of fire for an assault rifle. The AUG is similar to the G36E in that it also costs an extra 150 GP because it comes with an attached scope, and this scope has the range of a sniper rifle. The AUG also recoils more slightly more everywhere than it does up. Also worth mentioning is that the AUG is the fastest reloading assault rifle.

Because the AUG isn't as accurate as the G36E, the scope isn't as good for sniping as it is for medium range combat. When using the scope and single-shotting, the strong recoil is negated and it will only kick straight up, making the AUG's scope easy to manage. The AUG is capable of burst fire and can be fitted with a suppressor or magazine mod.

Common Name: K2

Not a commonly seen gun, the K2 sports the highest rate of fire out of all the assault rifles, tied with the FAMAS. It is also very accurate, beaten in the stat only by the AK47 and G36E.

The interesting thing about the K2 is that it can fire in all three modes: Auto, Burst, and Single. While most people that use the K2 will set it to Auto, using Semi-Auto or Burst will can be very ammo-conserving and powerful. Using Single fire brings out the accuracy and makes the recoil meaningless.

Common Name: FAMAS

This bullpup model gun is the weakest four-shot kill. To compensate for the power, the FAMAS features high accuracy, fair recoil, and the highest firing rate out of all the assault rifles.

The FAMAS fires with an extremely distinctive popping sound, so unless you use a suppressor, everyone will know that you are using the FAMAS. Using a scope mod drastically reduces the recoil on this gun and makes it good for medium-range sniping.

Common Name: M14

The M14 assault rifle isn't actually an assault rifle, it's a battle rifle, which is a hybrid of a sniper and an assault rifle. Although still a three shot kill, any damage more than 2 to the target (or a light vesting target) will result in a 2 shot kill. It is also extremely accurate. However, it fires very slowly, making this gun a great way to get yourself killed in close combat.

The M14 can fire on automatic or semi-auto. The automatic mode will cause the gun to have strong recoil every shot without a scope. Using the semi-auto mode completely eliminates the recoil, keeps the crosshair in check, making this gun perfect for mid-range combat or as a sniper substitute. Using a scope without a S1 suppressor will eliminate the diagonal recoil and the almost non-existent side recoil. However, the rate of fire is so slow that the recoil doesn't even affect your aiming much. When sustaining fire, both are deadly accurate. This gun's uniqueness comes with a high price.

Common Name: SG

This assault rifle features extreme accuracy, a high rate of fire, and literally insignificant recoil. The crosshair doesn't get very big either. However, it is a weak four shot kill at maximum, and any distance makes it a five hit kill.

The main downside of the SG550 is its small clip and limited ammo. The gun is also the least portable assault rifle, so don't expect to be getting anywhere quickly. It is also very expensive.

This gun is rarely seen, because its downsides cause many people to favor the stronger, and inexpensive M4A1

The AK74SU, is actually a SMG/AR hybrid, I don't know if it should fit in your AR guide, but I put the Bizon another SMG/AR design in mine. So, does not matter really, a battle rifle is not a hybrid of an assault rifle and a sniper rifle but it's bullet it uses, the gun itself like; the American M14 and the German G3, they use a heavy fitting firepower, not a sniper rifle. A sniper rifle is a rifle fitted with a scope to take out targets over 600-2,000 meters. A battle rifle is a selective firing rifle use as a service rifle, to take out targets as far as 200-1,000 yards. The bullet of the rifle tend to be hard hitters. Unlike assault rifles, that uses a smaller round, such as the 5.56NATO rounds, or the Russian 7.62x39mm round, the term 'battle rifle' isn't use. The problem is 'battle rifle' are hard to perfection you'll have to think of a large round, that can be controlled in automatic, the rifles that uses the bigger and harder rounds, tend to be longer, heavier, and then to be a failure at CQC. Thus the smaller and more accurate AR are replacing these weapons.

To many rules of the armies, such as the Marine Corps of the United States of America; riflemen must know to aim and hit a target as around 100 meters, the sniper must aim and hit a target of over 600 meters. Depending on the role you're taking.
