Can't say that I've gamed all of those guns but my Sig 551 sure fits me like a glove.

So my advice: the only two things you have to worry about are overall length of the gun and length of the magazine (yes, AK sucks at this part, but you can still buy shorter mag). You should just buy what you like the most. I just couldn't be happy with SCAR, cause I think it's one ugly weapon and looking at it the whole game would ruin day. |

while I will reach for an M14 most every time I have the option.. their comfort seems to go a little down hill when fast move and fire through wooded areas (even with a short barrel)
so for me personally the over all most comfortable/usable would be the Aug. for some reason I find it really hard to be comfortable with an Armalite, I think it has to do with the angle of the pistol grip to the height of the cheek weld of the stocks. guess I'm too much of a rifle guy.

Of all the airsoft guns, I had the chance to handle (AK47, Type 56-1, MP5, MP40, AR, MP717(r))- I must say my MP40 is the most comfortable to play with - the weight is mainly centered in the middle perfect for a trail carry while running and the pistol grip is very comfortable (took me one game and I never went back to my AK).

The more current the design of a weapon the better chance there is that it was designed to be comfortable to use.
The FN SCAR and the Magpul Masada are the most current items up there. The controls will be ambidextrous and short throw, the stock will be adjustable in a few dimensions, and that will really go a long way to making the rifle comfortable to use. The P90 sure looks ergonomic but it has no real adjustment built in other than putting a longer butt pad on. I've had many people mention they find it uncomfortable to hold because of they have to bend their wrist. I have six of the choices on this list within arms reach by the way (seven if you count other).

You don't shoulder AK. AK shoulders YOU.

I don't care for body size (actually I prefer it to be a little bit massive) but the M16 mags are a good thing. Interchangeable barrels are good too but on the field given they might need to cool down before changing that's a really secondary feature, you're better off installing a proper barrel length before going on the field. SCAR ? Not bad but the only thing it inspired me in regards of the competition is "Meh...". Plus I find the EGLM trigger system retarded, XM320/AGL design is a LOT more comfy and "wrist-friendly". |

For out of the box comfort, I really like the Tavor. Short profile, very flick-able, and light weight. However, an AR with aftermarket accessories can be as good or better.

AK series for me. Though, the SIG's and MP5's are incredibly comfortable also.

M14 is not ergonomic, it is "traditional" and pretty punishing to shoot for extended periods. The Armalite rifle was designed to be ergonomic. Bore in line with the stock and a head erect posture. Assault rifles.. like midsized cars tend to all look more or less the same. it's not until we see bullpup designs that things get shook up. the bullpup configuration is I think optimized for the modern battle field, where mechanized infantry are very likely to end up in a urban environment. You can have a carbine length weapon with a rifle length barrel. The SA80 was a groundbreaker for this configuration, with the Tavor taking a bit further. Id be interested to see if a Bullpup makes it into the improved carbine tests the USA is tendering now. I expect not.. seeing as they are seen as "too European"

prefer the ACR masada to the scar ... tryed both ... and bullpup design need too mutch movements to change mag properly
pos : handle grip is more confortable for hands, scar use the same handle grip as standar m4/m16 series bolt release can be reach by the triger finger easy bolt handle is at the right place; you can grab it without getting your eye out of your aiming system (if you have the ak masada version sorry but it is not that place that I'm talking about) the whole gun mecanics is ambidextrous making it sweet for left handed people... cheek rest came on each stock cons : too many complain about cod : mw2 ... lol who care about a game that i never played this is the best and the fresh weapon on the market ... but because magpul is in the other category i would say hk brand usualy doing good on ergo and FN also (like FN 5.7,p90 fn2000) sorry for scar fan but the ergo is the same as a armalite brand ...

Starting to change a litlle bit given the USMC Force Recon are getting a SAW version of the HK416 (basically they just put a heavy barrel on it)... "weirdly" every guy in Force Recon is converting to SAW. Now I'd like a change in caliber... |
