The BAR is awful for me - worst gun in the game. The STG I can't really use as well - never seems to do much damage and the iron sight is no good either.

The Bren is ok for the British and the SMLE is my favourite bolt action.

Its hard to just pick a single favorite. But if I had to, I'd say something like STG>BAR>MP40

STG has a bit of kick, but its just feels so lethal that it feels like you almost always get the better of someone at the appropriate range. BAR just feels great and is comfortable at longer ranges for an automatic. MP40 is just a really comfortable gun, and I typically play Officer so its more or less my main gun.
I can't stand the Thompson though, it feels like a melee weapon.

depends on the situation, the semi rifles (G43, carbine and svt) are good for many, but except the M1 Garand, lack power over distance - remember this game divides the guns in classes and has nothing to do with real.

over distance the bolts are great, but slow. again, the Garant fits into that class even as semi and is superior to them.
soviet ones may have an ironsight you have to get used to, but do the same dmg.
the kar98 and enfields are sufficient except in close quarter.

when getting into urban maps and attacking squads close up, all mp's are good. on wide open maps though, they just draw the attention of the enemy, any bolt will drop you from far away.
but the ppsh with its firerate is insane, just spray and pray, no skill needed :/

bar is missing dmg over distance like an mp :/ not sure why its made so weak.
stg is actualy one of the first assault guns, not good represented here, but usualy does the job.
M3 is with its slow firerate and as mp class not the best. but also works, since a supplier just has to defend himself like a medic or a propper SL (his role (SL) is not to kill and make score, he's supposed to transmit between command and squad).

so if you play the game as intended, all guns have its place and do what is required. but if you just want to score kills, the semis and especialy the M1 Garand is "best/better" :/

i would not choose a role only for its gun - a common missconception caused by the shooter mentality only to make kills!
you are a squad, a team, work together and youll have more fun.

and about the melee weapons... sry i have only 2 kills in 1k hours, one because i ran out of ammo (typical when no one drops the crates where needed) XD absolutly irrelevant to me ;)

The STG & Bar kill in 1-3 shots. Just single tap at long distances. They have excellent range and you are not at a disadvantage in close quarter combat as they are automatic.

Garand, Kar98, StG44 for me. My furthest headshot ironically was with the Enfield @468 meters.

sachel.....solutions thru explosions

[Mad Jack]

SMLE No. 1 Mk III

[Onimaho]

MP44

Because it is the only smg available to support class, which I am currently leveling.
