Most Comfortable Rifle

What do you think is the most comfortable / ergonomic rifle? (AEGs and GBBRs)

all depends on use...While my AI sniper rifle is real confortable and ergonomic when shooting from prone off the bipod and monopod it's the worst piece of shit when running 500 meters to engare a series of targets, there my ar-15 is mutch better but it sure does suck when trying to engage targets 1000 yards away.

While I usualy prefer SBR's my favorite airsoft gun remains my good old RPK. But ergonomy wise it's hard to beat the armalites as it can be personnalised to fit it's users taste and preferance. There is a world of difference betwin my service ar-15 and my GF's but both are built with the same use in mind

1000 yards?! I don't think even a real AR can engage at that distance...

What kind of setup are you running that allows you to engage targets 914.4 metres away? YOu must play on very large fields then.

You're gonna get a huge amount of AR bias due to the massive userbase of them. It seems they only get 'comfortable' when you slap a load of magpul shit onto the gun.

My votes going to go for the MP5 with a full stock.

Of all the rifles I've held, I think I'll have to give it to my f2000.

My vote is for the F2000, the AR-15s are customisable, but off the bat I think the F2000 is comfy (I haven't gamed with one though).

the AR pistol grip is very comfy but ARs are front heavy.
the bullpup configuration is comfy once you get used to it, but the grip is not as good as an Armalite's.
MP5 related is comfy but the selector interferes with the hand...
the most amazingly uncomfortable grip is the Sten.

There is a very good reason why there is a massive user base to them.

They are comfortable.

they produce a lot of them because the rifle is famous also, like AKs...during the 80s M16s and Uzis were everywhere

^^^^^
This.

Give me a stock AR, stock grips, handguards, etc and I'm a happy camper. It's simple, ergonomic, and gets the job done.

As for SCARs, they basically have an AR lower receiver and grip, so they're pretty much the same for the most part when it comes to the ergonomics of holding / shooting.

I got to hold an F2000 at our last game and I fell in love. It just drops into place so comfortably.

Well considering a quarter your list are not actually rifles...


Probably AR platforms.. They are like the lego's of the firearms world, you can configure them to the point where they suit your needs, However without that aftermarket niche I would probably a toss up between the FAL or AK Series.

This is strictly airsoft.
