Ubisoft's The Division 2 takes everything that fans loved about the first game and enhances it. Set in a pandemic-struck Washington DC, The Division 2 is an MMO in which players and their friends prowl through endless peril to try and save Washington DC. Survival is among the game's key focuses, as danger lurks around every corner. In order to make their way through the city, players are given a large array of classes, items, and weapons to choose from.
Among the array of weapons available in The Division 2, Assault Rifles are a type that most people can use comfortably, given their effectiveness and their ease of use. The game has multiple Assault Rifles, and while ultimately fans should go with the one that suits their play styles the most, these the best Assault Rifles in The Division 2.
7 Carbine 7
Kicking things off is the Carbine 7, which is arguably the greatest all-rounder Assault Rifle in The Divison 2. Its medium rate of fire, coupled with its manageable recoil, good damage, and overall ease of use makes this weapon the perfect Assault Rifle for those who are not looking for something highly specialized.
Alongside its many strengths, it also features a good range, making it a very powerful PVE Assault Rifle in The Division 2. T he Carbine 7 is a useful tool in everything from looting runs to raids.
6 Police M4
While the Police M4 might not have the greatest damage, its high accuracy and stability make it a devastating weapon for players to use in The Division 2. Players looking for higher accuracy (and more headshots) in their game should give the Police M4 a try.
This weapon also has a high rate of fire and range, making it ideal for PVE games. When paired with the right attachments, this reliable weapon will crush through hordes of enemies. Its high accuracy and usability mean that players who want to switch to Assault Rifles can use this as a transitioning weapon of sorts.
5 P416
P416 is probably the greatest beginner assault rifle in The Division 2. It makes up for its slow rate of fire with its high DPS and accuracy. The P416 it is the weapon players start the game off with. While starting weapons are sometimes viewed as weak, this one is anything but.
With the right attachments and upgrades, it can take players into mid-game or until they find a better weapon. It's a very strong and accurate Assault Rifle that cruises through enemies, especially upon headshots.
4 CTAR-21
Due to its RPM of 900, the CTAR is often considered the FAMAS's easier-to-use sibling. Due to its ease of use and high rate of fire, the DPS with the CTAR is incredibly high.
The CTAR is also very customizable. With the right rolls and attachments that increase stability, the CTAR is highly reliable due to its manageable recoil pattern. This short to mid ranged Assault Rifle will excel in almost every scenario thrown at it.
3 MK16
The MK16 is among the greatest mid to long-ranged weapons in The Division 2. While it has a slow rate of fire, its range and accuracy more than make up for it. This weapon is perfect for the player that likes to stay behind cover and hit from afar.
With the correct rolls, a long-ranged scope, and a stability-suppressing attachment, the MK16 is a beast of a weapon that will easily pick up headshots from a long range. Having someone who mains this weapon will benefit every fireteam.
2 F2000
Another very underrated assault rifle in The Division 2 is the F2000. With its high rate of fire and impressive DPS, the F2000 is an easy pick for aggressive players.
It is a very easy to use weapon too, and can be very useful in danger situations. Giving it the right attributes and an extended mag will lead to a weapon that players can use well into the late game.
1 FAMAS 2010
Owing to its high rate of fire and precise burst hitting, the FAMAS is among the most beloved assault rifles in The Division 2. While its recoil can be pretty hard to manage when used automatically, that can be negated with the burst mode. What players get is a weapon that is useful in almost every scenario.
Players who enjoy a run and gun style of gameplay can also go a long way with the FAMAS, so long as they put in the time to learn its recoil patterns. It is an exceptionally strong weapon and is among the greatest assault rifles in The Divsion 2.
