Okay, let's dive into the wild world of BGMI's Assault Rifles (ARs). If you're anything like me, you've spent countless hours tweaking attachments, experimenting with different scopes, and generally trying to figure out which AR will turn you into a chicken dinner champion. Spoiler alert: there's no single "best," but there are definitely some standouts. The frustrating thing is, what works for one person might be a total dud for another. Playstyle matters, you know?
The M416: Still the King?
Let’s start with the old reliable, the M416. It’s the AR that everyone knows and loves (or loves to hate, depending on how many times you've been sprayed down by it). It's stable, versatile, and readily available. I initially thought its reign was over, but after seeing some crazy plays recently, I might have to eat my words. You see it everywhere, it accepts basically every attachment under the sun, and in the hands of a skilled player? Forget about it. But, is it really the best? That's the million-dollar question, isn't it? I'd argue it's the best all-around AR, but others definitely outshine it in specific scenarios.

But, before that, finish this article, so you can have the best loadout, no matter which game you are playing!
Groza: The Close-Quarters Beast
Now, for something completely different: the Groza. This baby is a beast, plain and simple. Found only in air drops, it boasts an insane fire rate that can melt enemies in close quarters. Seriously, if you're clearing buildings, the Groza is your best friend. The only downside? The recoil can be a bit unruly, especially if you're trying to engage at medium range. But, honestly, if you're using a Groza at medium range, you're probably doing it wrong. Think of it as a souped-up SMG, and you'll be golden. Plus, the sound it makes? Intimidating, to say the least. You can use websites like Crazy Games to practice your aim.
The Beryl M762: High Risk, High Reward
Ah, the Beryl. This is the AR for the thrill-seekers. It hits like a truck, packing a serious punch with each bullet. But here's the catch: the recoil is absolutely brutal. Mastering the Beryl takes practice, patience, and a healthy dose of masochism. But once you get it down? You'll be dropping enemies left and right. I've got to admit, this part fascinates me - the skill ceiling is so high, and the reward for mastering it is immense. It's not for the faint of heart, but if you're looking for an AR that can truly dominate, the Beryl is worth the effort. It may take some time, but it can be one of the best loadouts in Fortnite.
SCAR-L: The Underdog Worth Considering
The SCAR-L is often overlooked, which is a shame because it's a solid AR in its own right. It's not flashy, it doesn't have an insane fire rate, and it doesn't hit as hard as some of the others. But what it does have is consistency. The recoil is manageable, the accuracy is decent, and it's a reliable choice in most situations. It's the Toyota Camry of ARs - not exciting, but gets the job done. Plus, it looks pretty cool with the right skin, let's be honest. While everyone is scrambling for the M416 or the Beryl, you can be quietly racking up kills with the SCAR-L. Don't sleep on it!
AKM: The Classic Choice
And finally, we have the AKM. Powerful, yes. Accurate? Not so much. This AR is all about raw stopping power. Each bullet feels like it could knock someone off their feet, and in close to medium range, it's a force to be reckoned with. The recoil is significant, making it less effective at longer ranges, but if you can control it, the AKM can be devastating. It's a classic for a reason, and in the right hands, it's still a viable choice.
FAQ: Your BGMI AR Questions Answered
Which AR is best for beginners in BGMI?
For beginners, the M416 is generally the best choice. Its versatility, availability, and relatively manageable recoil make it a forgiving weapon to learn with. You can slap on a variety of attachments to customize it to your liking, and it performs well in most situations. Don't be afraid to experiment, though! Find what clicks with your playstyle.
How do I control the recoil of the Beryl M762?
Controlling the Beryl's recoil is all about practice and attachments. Use a vertical grip to help manage the vertical recoil, and a compensator to reduce both vertical and horizontal recoil. Practice in the training grounds to get a feel for the recoil pattern, and learn to compensate by pulling down on your mouse or joystick. Short bursts are key!
Is the Groza still worth using if I can't consistently find it?
The Groza is a powerful weapon, but its limited availability makes it less reliable than other ARs. If you can consistently secure air drops, then the Groza is definitely worth using. However, if you're struggling to find it, it's better to focus on mastering a more readily available AR like the M416 or SCAR-L. The Groza is a luxury, not a necessity.
Why do pros still use the M416 so much?
While other ARs might excel in specific areas, the M416's versatility and reliability make it a consistent choice for professional players. Its manageable recoil, availability, and ability to accept a wide range of attachments make it a solid pick in almost any situation. Plus, pros have spent countless hours mastering it, so they're incredibly comfortable with its handling. It’s a known quantity, and in a competitive environment, consistency is key.
