Firepower vs. Maneuverability
Which do you prefer in a weapon?
I'm really into firepower; that's why I love the AK series and don't own a single M4, and tend to flame M4ers.
However, today I discovered the beauty of light weapons. First off, I go for some M4-C crates (yeah, I'm such a hyprocrite
) and end up with a temp MP5-Adv. Man, the lightweight feels so good, you can run circles around your enemy and just keep poppin' them domes.
Later, on a whim, I decide to try out my M700 for the first time in ages. "Ima be the non-hakking version of TastyLimes," I thought to myself. Lo and behold, I played a few games and ended up over 3.5 K/D with the M700, and I decided to reward my lovely new favorite sniper by repairing it.
tl;dr : It seems that maneuverability is more important than power, as long as you're able to make headshots. Now I'm more biased towards MP5/M700-like weapons. No uzis, though, because they take 2 headshots and that's annoying.

That's neat..
You flame somebody for using a balanced gun like a boss?
I flame terrible AK users who think they're great when they spray and hit 3 times and get a kill.
actually, i enjoy using the m4 as well. like i said in my post, i'm a hypocrite
its more like a "funflame", not like the way i "flame flame" m12s or the clan _11September
imo, m4 is much easier to use, is all. since i don't own one, I only get to use it in E.M. anyways, like i said, I'm trying to get the custom, but if not, I might just buy a normal M4. IMO normal variants of weapons are beast. -

Had nothing to waste it on.

Firepower is critical in SnD as every shot counts and could be your last. Maneuverability is better served in the other modes, especially TDM.
It also depends on your playstyle, I'm a slow paced player who fancies his markmanship over rushing and spraying.
