Hello to all those who veiw my page here the m8a1 is burst weapon in black ops 2 as well as the swat 556 now I have found the swat to be better with select fire and either the eotech udot sight or force grip or if you are willing maybe.It is best used at short to medium range but if your skilled sometimes long range,this weapon has no range to damage output effect it will always kill regularly with 4 shots or 3 to the head I beilieve.Now as for the m8a1 I suggest acog and fmj or fast mag depending on what map your playing on or just how you play the game,the m8a1 has a 4 round burst while the swat has a 3 round burst,some would say right off the bat that they would choose this cause I do believe im talking better about the m8a1 but their actually tied in a way,why,cause the m8a1 eats ammo quicker than the swat,has more ammo by 2 rounds (3 if both have extended clip) than the swat,cone in the middle id say is about the same maybe better than the swat from hip fire,they both have real low recoil in burst mode.but they react differently such as the swat is better as a fully automatic weapon (select fire) while the m8a1 is better as a kinda burst sniper (acog).Now here are the statistics to both weapons,reload time swat-about1.0sec m8a1-2.8,rounds to kill swat-always 4 m8a1-drops from 6 to 4 depending on range (NOTE:the m8a1 does not add to headshot damage always the same so aim for torso),magazine size the winner is honestly the swat cause the m8a1 chews through ammo faster than the swat reccomend extended clip if you add overkill,look I would say in my opinion the swat's appearence is better than the m8a1.But if I were to choose which is the winner than I would say probably the swat in most cases but for longer distance I will say the m8a1 with acog.How I play with the 2 guns,I use the swat 556 with select fire and the udot sight no grip cause I tap the rt button rather than hold it to keep it steady and the secondary to back it up I use the b23r with long barrel and my perks are lightweight,scavenger,engineer and my non lethals 2xblack hats.I use the m8a1 with acog and fmj my secondary is the ballistic knife my perks are lightweight scavenger or toughness and tactical mask my letal is a claymore cause with this weapon you will be holding the line and 2 flashbangs to hold em still.now thx for reading if I see problems or you point them out or I missed somethin please do tell me and ill come back and edit it and once nore thx.
