The outcome of every gunfight you take in Free Fire is determined by two factors—your skills and your weapons. While gunplay skill is mastered overtime, it’s crucial to pick the right weapon to train yourself. This guide will help you in finding the best guns to use in the game.

Best Assault Rifles (AR) in Free Fire

  • M14 - It has the highest damage and range of any AR in the game. Requires skill to operate but is extremely powerful as shots to kill is low. One major downside is the low magazine capacity of 15 bullets.AUG - A perfectly balanced gun that comes with good damage, fire rate, and accuracy. The default version has a pre-attached scope which is helpful in medium range fights.Groza - A great weapon with high damage and range. It’s a rare find and has a high recoil kick.M4A1 - It’s similar to the AUG but with a better range and hence more suitable for long distance engagements.

Best Submachine Guns (SMG) in Free Fire

  • MP40 - The best close-range weapon in Free Fire. The fast fire rate and a decent damage output makes this SMG deadly. However, the cons associated include poor range, accuracy, and a base magazine size of 20. Thompson - A well-balanced SMG that eliminates the downsides of the MP40 while keeping its pros. It also has a great magazine capacity of 42 bullets.UMP - It features reasonably high damage and fire rate while keeping the gun controllable. The movement speed is also the highest of any SMG.

Best Sniper Rifles in Free Fire

The following two Snipers are very similar as they have identical damage and rate of fire. However, you may choose one based on which weapon’s feature you like more.

  • M82B - It has a faster reload speed, carries two more bullets in the magazine, and has great armor penetration against vehicles.AWM - The only edge AWM has over the M82B is the slightly higher accuracy, which isn’t even noticeable. It’s still a fantastic weapon if you can get your hands on it.

Best Light Machine Guns (LMG) in Free Fire

  • Gatling - It has a high accuracy, range, damage, and fire rate. What alienates the Gatling from other LMGs is the 1200 ammo capacity. But keep in mind that mobility while holding this gun is awfully slow.M249 - It is the fastest firing LMG with great range and accuracy. The magazine size of 100 is neither too much nor to less.Kord - Compared to other guns in its class, Kord has significantly better movement speed. The rest of the properties are more or less similar to the M249.

Best Marksman Rifles in Free Fire

  • Woodpecker - The M21 has the highest fire rate and accuracy of all DMRs. It’s great for tap firing and shooting players out of vehicles.SVD - It has the highest damage and range in its class. It also comes with a pre-equipped 4x optic. However, the Dragunov is rare and can only be found in airdrops and resupply points.

Best Shotguns in Free Fire

  • MAG-7 - This weapon has the mobility and fire rate more than any Shotgun but lacks damage. M1887 - Although it comes with only two shells in the chamber, the incredibly high damage can easily knock down players in even a single shot. Nonetheless, Shotguns aren’t a popular weapon choice and their viability is restricted to the initial few circles.
