Quick Answer

The AK-47 outputs the highest per-bullet damage and is the only rifle that one-taps helmeted heads, but its recoil kicks harder. The M4A4 balances a 30-round magazine with manageable spray, though it needs two headshots to secure a kill.

How do the AK-47, M4A4, and M4A1-S compare?

The AK-47 outputs the highest per-bullet damage and is the only rifle that one-taps helmeted heads, but its recoil kicks harder. The M4A4 balances a 30-round magazine with manageable spray, though it needs two headshots to secure a kill. The M4A1-S carries just 20 rounds but features the gentlest recoil of the three and comes suppressed. Your pick should align with your play style and role on the team.
