Closing thoughts

As the defacto Terrorist rifle, the AK-47 is likely the strongest all-round weapon in the game. While its stellar damage at a distance and other attributes are what you would expect from a rifle, compared to other rifles it also has a notably fast reload time at merely 2.4 seconds.

The AUG is a fantastic weapon, but at $3300 it is hard to justify compared to the defacto Counter-Terrorist rifle options. While it has much higher armour penetration, it is not always able to convert this - no Counter-Terrorist rifle can deal lethal damage through a helmet in one shot, so given that 2 shots are required this benefit can often seem meaningless. Furthermore, the AUG also has a reload time of 3.8 seconds - far slower than all other rifles.

However, the weapon is armed with a scope, which can make defending certain angles on a bomb site easy.
