Overview:

PROS:
- Good Damage
- Attacks Quickly (vs. other semi-automatic weapons)
- Low Ammo Cost (lowest of all assault rifles)

CONS:
- Short Effective Range (vs. other assault rifles)
- Inaccurate (lowest of all assault rifles)
- Small Magazine (vs. other assault rifles)
- Semi-Automatic

TACTICS:
Likely the first assault rifle that the player obtains, it provides a boost in firepower over most of the weapons available early in the game. While it shoots quickly for a semi-automatic, it's relatively inaccurate and isn't fully automatic like the other assault rifles available. However, this weapon is still very reliable and can be effective beyond the levels that it can be scavenged in.
Recommended gear:
- Ammunition Mods increase the damage, allowing it to take down enemies faster.
- Extended Mags increase the small magazine size.
- Glasses increase the short range, with some variants increasing accuracy.
- Weapon Cleaning Kit improves its low accuracy.

BACKGROUND: 
Whether you're a police officer in need of a solid patrol carbine or a civilian who desires some high-end firepower to defend your home, this excellent M16 clone is about as "tacti-cool" as you can get without the legal hassles of owning a fully-automatic rifle.
An expensive firearm made for law enforcement and civilian purchase.

BACKGROUND:
The main Russian service rifle since the last third of the Cold War is an AKM modified to fire a smaller 5.45mm bullet; a deadly counterpart to NATO's 5.56mm cartridge. Not quite as prolific as its older brother, but it has nonetheless shed plenty of blood in hotspots around the globe.
Standard-issue assault rifle of several former Soviet nations. Also saw extensive importation/copying in North America.

Overview:

PROS:
- Good Effective Range
- Good RoF
- Fully-Automatic
- Large Magazine

CONS:
- Low Damage (lowest of all assault rifles)

TACTICS:
An effective weapon, it has a slightly higher RoF and reloads more quickly than its counterpart, the AK-74, but has a slightly lower range and deals less damage per shot. They are otherwise nearly identical, though the AK-74 has an edge in DPS. Both are likely to be the first fully-automatic assault rifles the player obtains, providing a large boost in firepower over the SMGs available up to that point.
Recommended gear:
- Ammunition Mods increase the punch per shot, ensuring enemies fall faster.
- Extended Mags expand its ammo capacity, allowing for more shots before reloading, with some variants increasing reload speed as well.

BACKGROUND:
The carbine version of the M16 is a prized weapon for many elite military/paramilitary units, due to its modularity and its versatility in both close quarters and open field combat. The weapon's popularity has since spread to the regular U.S. infantry, who increasingly find themselves deployed to dense urban environments.
Used extensively by many militaries and law enforcement units around the world.

PROS:

CONS:

TACTICS:
An above-average weapon in nearly every aspect. It hits decently hard, has a good range and is slightly more accurate than other assault rifles. However, it is limited to 3-round bursts instead of automatic fire. While it can fire those bursts quickly, this feature heavily reduces its firepower. Best used to support other survivors at medium range.
Recommended gear:
- Ammunition Mods increase the damage per shot, allowing for faster kills.
- Weapon Cleaning Kits boosts the accuracy of the weapon, ensuring less shots go to waste.
- Glasses improve the already-large range, with some variants increasing accuracy as wel

BACKGROUND:
The M16 series has long been the West's answer to the AK-47, offering a lightweight, accurate, and low-recoiling assault rifle design that continues to be deployed by many armies. The A2 model features a three-round burst trigger group, which was intended to promote ammo conservation in combat.
Formerly the standard issue assault rifle of the U.S. military, it is still used by National Guard and reserve units.

PROS:
- High Damage (vs other assault rifles)
- Accurate (vs other assault rifles)
- Fully-Automatic

CONS:
- Short Effective Range (vs other assault rifles)
- Small Magazine (vs other assault rifles)

TACTICS:
While short ranged compared to other ARs around its level, the CR-553 hits much harder with each bullet. Combined with its decent accuracy, one shot from this weapon can be more effective than several from a different AR. Its relatively small magazine does mean it has less shots to begin with, so making each one count is important. Its aforementioned short range also puts its wielder at risk, which makes support from other survivors desirable.
Recommended gear:
- Ammunition Mods increase the weapon's damage, helping to mow down zombies quickly and efficiently.
- Glasses compensate for its relatively short range, with some variants increase accuracy as well.
- Extended Mags allow for more shots to be fired before needing to reload, with some variants increasing reload speed as well.
- Ammunition Pouches/Bandoliers allow for faster reloads, compensating for its smaller magazine and reducing the time its wielder is left vulnerable.

BACKGROUND:
A modern and reliable short-barreled tactical carbine from Switzerland; this is the more compact "commando" variant of its full-sized bigger brother, and has proven itself to be an excellent CQB weapon for elite paramilitary teams across the globe.
Deployed by some federal agencies.

CONS:
- Short Range (vs. other assault rifles)
- Low RoF (vs. other assault rifles)
- Reloads Slowly (vs. other assault rifles

TACTICS:
While short-ranged compared to other assault rifles, it hits harder and is slightly more accurate than most, making it more effective in close quarters. However, its short range makes it riskier to use, so support from other survivors is advised. As a must in smaller maps, the AKS-74U serves the player well, until a SCAR-H is found.
Recommended gear:
- Ammunition Mods increase its damage, allowing it to eliminate enemies faster and more efficiently.
- Extended Mags increase its ammo capacity, allowing it to lay down more fire before having to reload.
- Glasses counteracts its short range, with some variants increasing accuracy as well.
- Ammunition Pouches/Bandoliers allows for faster reloads, reducing the time its wielder is left vulnerable.

BACKGROUND:
A rugged and highly-compact version of the AK-74 that was designed for Soviet special forces, paratroopers and auxiliary units; packing the lethality of an assault rifle in a SMG-length package. Ideal for close quarters fighting, though it is often criticised for its blinding muzzle blast and high full-auto recoil.
Equipped by the Russian army and some criminal elements in Union City and worldwide.

CONS:

- Small Magazine (vs. other assault rifles)

TACTICS:
An excellent all-purpose weapon in the vein of the M4A1 or FA-223, it possesses the highest RoF of any assault rifle, which is combined with decent accuracy and damage per shot. It does possess a smaller magazine than other AR-types and chews through ammo quickly, but it will shred even groups of zombies with ease.
Recommended gear:
- Ammunition Mods to get more damage out of its smaller magazine.
- Bandoliers to decrease the time spent reloading.
- Extended Mags to increase its small magazine.

BACKGROUND:
The Special Forces Combat Assault Rifle resulted from a demand by U.S. special forces units for a versatile and highly-modular weapon system. Two models were produced, with the 7.62mm "H" (Heavy) model being the most prominent, fulfilling various niche roles as a dual-purpose CQB/designated marksman rifle.
Equipped by the military and some SWAT teams, with semi-auto only models available to civilians as well.

CONS:
- Reloads Slowly (vs. other assault rifles)

TACTICS:
Basically a high level version of the AK-74, this rifle deals incredible damage per shot, also possessing excellent accuracy and range. However, its poor rate of fire, combined with a long reload speed, means that a lone survivor can be overwhelmed quickly. It's best to group its wielder with other survivors, who can provide backup while reloading.
Recommended gear:
- Ammunition Pouches/Bandoliers speed up the reload time.
- Glasses extend the long range further, with some variants improving accuracy.
- Extended Mags extend the large magazine size.
- Ammunition Mods increase the damage dealt, theoretically reducing the shots needed to kill.

BACKGROUND:
The latest in the venerable AK series of weapons is this modern assault rifle, which uses a much lighter alloy-polymer construction and features several enhancements; such as ambidextrous controls, pic-rails, and improved recoil reduction during semi and full-auto fire. Full production of the rifle barely began in Russia just before the outbreak hit.
By unknown means, small numbers of this unique firearm have found their way into the Dead Zone.

TACTICS:
Essentially a higher-level version of the M4A1, it is an excellent all-purpose weapon that is effective in nearly any situation. High accuracy and rate of fire lets it rip apart targets with brutal efficiency from a safe distance, though its damage is a bit on the low side for the levels it's available in.
Recommended gear:
- Ammunition Mods to increase its high damage.
- Glasses to increase its decent effective range, with some variants increasing accuracy as well.
- Ammunition Pouches/Bandoliers reduce the time to reload, making the weapon reload even faster.

BACKGROUND:
Intended to replace the aging M16 and Galil series of assault rifles, this compact bullpup design from Israel packs all the firepower of a full-sized rifle in a smaller, easier to handle package, making it effective in both the tight confines of the city and the wide expanses of the desert.
The standard-issue rifle of the IDF, it's also used by some SWAT teams.

CONS:
- Reloads Slowly (vs. other assault rifles)
- Low RoF (lowest of all automatic assault rifles)

TACTICS:
Much like the AR-99 before it, it is an excellent substitute for a long rifle thanks to its long range and high accuracy. A low rate of fire and somewhat slow reload, however, means its wielder will be vulnerable in close quarters. Keep it near other survivors to provide medium-long range fire support, which will also keep its wielder protected during reloads.
Recommended gear:
- Ammunition Pouches/Bandoliers/Carrier Harnesses negate the slow reload speed.
- Glasses extend the range, with some variants improving accuracy.

BACKGROUND:
Intended as the AK-74's replacement, the Avtomat Nikonova features a recoil-reducing reciprocating barrel and unique ammunition feeding system that delays recoil until the fired rounds leave the barrel. As a result, its 2-round burst mode can land both shots in nearly the exact same spot, which is believed to help penetrate body armor.
Used in small numbers by the Russian armed forces, police and government agencies. Seen in Union City for unknown reasons.

- Low RoF(vs other assault rifles)

TACTICS:
The M-416 is likely one of the most versatile assault rifles available, it can deal with zombies in just about any situation, ripping through individual ones with ease. It is balanced in nearly every stat, except for its lower RoF, making survivors holding it an easy target for overwhelming. Keep wielders behind other survivors for exceptional support fire.
Recommended gear:
- Glasses to improve range even further, with some variants enhancing accuracy as well.
- Ammunition Mods to increase its already high damage.
- Bandoliers to improve reload speed.

BACKGROUND:
The M-416 was developed as an improvement on the M4 carbine and also serves as the basis for the M-27. Its biggest difference from the original is a new gas piston system derived from that of the G36 intended to improve reliability, though enough remains similar that converting M4s to M-416s can be carried out relatively easily.
Deployed by various special forces and paramilitary units. Also the standard assault rifle of the Norweigan army.

- Has Minimum Effective Range (vs. other assault rifles)

TACTICS:
A weapon with long range, good damage and decent accuracy, this can eliminate most targets from a safe range at a decent rate. However, it fires slowly and notably has a minimum effective range, limiting its effectiveness against horde attacks. As a result, it should be used in a support role rather than as a frontline weapon which most assault rifles fit into.
Recommended gear:
- Bandoliers mitigate the slow reload speed.
- Extended Mags beef up the magazine capacity, allowing for more shots to be fired before reloading.
- Glasses extend its already impressive effective range, with some variants improving its accuracy as well.

BACKGROUND:
A carbine version of the AK-74 designed to fire 5.45x39mm ammunition, with a short barrel that puts it in the middle between full rifles and more compact versions, like the AKS-74U, supplementing the former in the Russian Army service.
Equipped by Russian federal agencies and law enforcement, and HERC.

TACTICS:
With its short reload, high damage and accuracy, fast attack speed, and long range, the XMR-15 is a formidable weapon during both horde attacks and at attacking from a distance. Its small magazine size leaves something to be desired, although gear can be equipped to further decrease its already impressive reload time.

BACKGROUND:
This experimental weapon based on the German G36 is HERC's custom version of the XM8, a prototype assault rifle designed to replace the aging M16/M4 rifles. What makes it unique from its basis is its versatility, allowing the operator to perform quick repairs and barrel changes on-site.
Developed by HERC, it has been field tested by HERC and survivors alike.

- Ammunition Pouch/Bandoliers to increase its reloading speed.

BACKGROUND:
The G36 assault rifle family is an example of new thinking in weaponry, made of high-strength polymers with metal used where appropriate. Early models used to overheat during prolonged firefights, greatly reducing accuracy and phasing it out from service in its homeland for a similar weapon. New models have a handguard and barrel of alloys for better resistance against temperature and environment.
Primary weapon of the German Federal police and armed forces. Also equipped by police and security agencies around the globe.
