Dive into Battlefield Hardline's Part 13 guide. Learn about the G36C carbine, assault rifle stats, damage profiles, and essential tips for dominating the battlefield.
Alright, let's talk about some of the beefier weapons in Battlefield Hardline, specifically the G36C carbine and the assault rifle class. These are your workhorses for mid-range engagements, but understanding their nuances can make a huge difference.
The G36C, for instance, is a solid choice. It fires a bit faster than the SG553 and has less recoil, though it does kick more horizontally and vertically. Reloads are also a tad slower. It comes standard with a Holo sight, which is pretty reliable.
Quick Update: Back in the day, the M416 was for criminals, but it got swapped with the G36C for cops. Also, the Criminal Activity update buffed the minimum damage for both the G36C and SG553, bumping it up from 15 to 18. Good news for those guns!

The 'C' stands for 'compact,' and it's derived from the G36K model. Unlike the original G36 with its big carry handle and scope, the G36C sports a sleek Picatinny rail for optics.
It's interesting to note that even though police in the UK don't carry guns daily, specialist units do use weapons like the G36 carbines, which have supplemented older MP5s. There was also some buzz about the G36 becoming inaccurate in high heat, leading to Germany temporarily replacing some with HK417s and planning a full replacement by 2019.
Assault Rifles: The Backbone of the Battlefield
Since the days of the Sturmgewehr 45 and AK47, assault rifles have become essential. They strike a great balance between accurate fire at typical engagement distances (around 200-300 meters) and a high rate of fire for close-quarters combat.
In Hardline, weapons like the ARM, RPK, and RPK74, which would normally be light machine guns, are treated as
