Answer 2

It depends on your playing style. If you're a camper, the best guns for you are accurate. Campers with snipers should use the DSR50 with ballistics cpu and zoom it's the strongest gun in the game. If you want to take out snipers use the M27 grip, acog, and fmj use the wildcard primary gunfighter to get 3rd attachment, also after you put on grip this gun will have virtually NO RECOIL. For a run and gun player use the PDW-57 with grip and fmj. For hardcore players that camp use the same camping weapons I told you before. For hardcore run and gun players use: PDW-57 laser sight and grip, or Vector laser and red dot, or peacekeeper (unlock by getting revolution map packs) with red dot and eotech. Peacekeeper is most accurate smg and has the least recoil and most damage out of all smgs.
