Combat Arms/Machine guns

There are not many avid machine gun users in Combat Arms, but these beasts still have their upsides. Machine guns are basically assault rifles that are modified for spraying. They sacrifice portability and accuracy for huge amounts of ammo, making it so that you can spray for a long time and not have to reload.

Machine guns can only be fitted with magazine mods. When you do have to reload a machine gun, it takes a very long time.

US M60


Common Name: M60

The M60 is the least accurate and least portable weapon existing in Combat Arms. It is so unportable that if somebody tosses a grenade nearby, you are quite dead. However, it has very high power, capable of a three-shot kill, and even if your enemy gets away, they will be left mortally damaged. The fire rate is fair for a machine gun, but the recoil should be handled carefully. Use this gun in ../Junk Flea/ during capture the flag to hold your opponents at the door.

FN MINIMI


Common Name: MINIMI

This weaker four-shot kill machine gun has the longest effective range, meaning that you won't necessarily lose all medium-range fights like you would with an MK48 or M60. The recoil is very low and it is relatively portable and accurate for a machine gun.

FN MK48


Common Name: MK48

This machine gun boasts the highest damage out of all the primary weapons, excluding sniper rifles and the M14. It also has the same amount of accuracy as the MINIMI. Due to this factor, this machine gun is also the most effective of the group at longer range – when bursting or controlling the recoil is done effectively, it is hard to uproot when dug in. Rushing a crouched MK48 is not a good plan – consider grenading the gunner before trying, or simply take a longer route to them to avoid being fired at as quickly.

Daewoo K3


Common Name: K3

The K3 is the fastest-firing and most portable machine gun, behaving almost the same as an assault rifle but sacrificing accuracy for lots of ammo. The K3 is the weakest machine gun, but it is still a four-shot kill. It doesn't have as much recoil as the two three-hit kill machine guns, but more than the MINIMI.

Daewoo K3 SPW (Supply Case)


Common Name: K3 SPW

The only difference between this supply case upgrade of the K3 and the K3 itself is that the K3 SPW is much more portable. You can actually go around and spray this machine gun without being slowed down by it to the pace of a snail. Also, it has an amazing 400 ammo in total. However, besides the portability and ammo, there is no difference at all.
