Delta Force: Top Assault Rifles for Tactical Operations

Delta Force offers an extensive array of firearms, featuring more than a dozen assault rifles. While all weapons in the game serve a purpose, certain models stand out for their superior performance and versatility.

Navigating the selection of assault rifles can be daunting, given that most exhibit comparable stopping power. Here, we present seven of the best assault rifles currently available, selected without specific ranking and taking into account both primary gameplay modes in Delta Force. The focus of this selection lies on user-friendliness.

M4A1

Recommended Build
Slot	Attachment
Barrel	AR Trench Standard Combo
Muzzle	Sandstorm Vertical Compensator
Foregrip	RK-0 Foregrip
Magazine	Polymer Mags with Mag Mount
Rear Grip	Invasion Rear Grip
Stock	Invasion Core Stock
Optic	Any

The M4A1 is a versatile assault rifle ideally suited for close-range encounters. With specific modifications, it can excel in medium-range and intense close-quarters combat (CQB). Lengthening the barrel can extend effective range up to 50 meters, while high handling builds can enhance speed and hipfire accuracy comparable to submachine guns (SMGs).

Practically any setup using the M4A1 is effective, even with unconventional builds. However, it does have a slight learning curve, so new players may require some time to master its capabilities.

CAR-15 / AKS-74

Recommended AKS-74 build for Delta Force

Recommended Build (CAR-15)
Slot	Attachment
Barrel	AR Gabriel Long Barrel
Muzzle	Sandstorm Vertical Compensator
Foregrip	K1 Elite Bevel Grip
Magazine	Poly Mag with Mag Mount
Rear Grip	Invasion Rear Grip
Stock	416 Light Stock
Optic	Any
Recommended Build (AKS-74)
Slot	Attachment
Upper Handguard	AKS-74 Upper Rail
Lower Handguard	AKS-74 Lower Rail
Muzzle	Bastion Horizontal Compensator
Foregrip	CR Prism Handstop
Magazine	Polymer Mag with Mag Mount
Rear Grip	RK-3
Stock	AK-19 Stock
Optic	Any

While both the CAR-15 and AKS-74 are fresh entries for newer players in Delta Force, they rank among the top assault rifles for their consistency. They excel in close to medium-range firefights, offering notable damage output and exceptional recoil management.

These weapons are closely related in performance, with the primary differences lying in damage per shot and firing rates. At range, the AKS-74 tends to outshine with better base damage, while the CAR-15 holds an advantage in close proximity due to its higher rate of fire.

SCAR-H

Recommended Build
Slot	Attachment
Barrel	Beaver Long Barrel
Muzzle	Sandstorm Vertical Compensator
Foregrip	RK-0 Foregrip/X25U Angled Combat Grip
Rear Grip	Invasion Rear Grip
Stock	UR Spec Ops
Optic	Any

The SCAR-H stands out as an excellent choice for players who prioritize stopping power at close to medium ranges. Although it features a slower fire rate, its smooth recoil patterns make it a lethal option, particularly for Engineers in Warfare mode.

Geared towards engagements over 30 meters, the SCAR-H is manageable when fired in controlled bursts. Its time-to-kill (TTK) matches many high-fire-rate counterparts, enabling it to compete effectively in close combat, so long as players maintain accuracy.

QBZ95-1

Recommended Build
Slot	Attachment
Handguard	Longbow Platform Kit
Barrel	Longbow Barrel Combo
Muzzle	Bastion Horizontal Compensator
Foregrip	Secret Order Bevel Foregrip
Rear Grip	Marksman D-2
Cheek Pad	QBZ Cheek Pad
Optic	Any (Magnified preferred)

The QBZ-95 offers distinct advantages, particularly in full-auto mode, making it a suitable choice for medium range engagements. Although its optimal TTK value is slightly higher than others at 0.4 seconds compared to a general 0.3 seconds, its ease of control compensates for this, especially with a 3x scope.

Players who favor precision shooting from cover will likely find enjoyment in utilizing the QBZ-95.

AUG

Recommended Build
Slot	Attachment
Barrel	AUG Vanguard
Muzzle	Sandstorm Vertical Compensator
Foregrip	RK-0 Foregrip
Stock	AUG Stock Pad
Cheek Pad	Universal Cheek Pad
Optic	Any (Magnified preferred)

Much like the QBZ-95, the AUG excels with its rapid-fire capabilities but requires skill for precision over longer distances due to its unique recoil pattern. Though it may require some fine-tuning of attachments to mitigate rightward kick, once mastered, this rifle demonstrates great versatility.

One consideration for the AUG is its relatively low damage per shot rating of 20, necessitating multiple rounds for body takedowns against unarmored targets. For optimal effectiveness, players should aim for headshots or utilize a burst fire approach, ultimately making the AUG a gratifying weapon for those who invest the time to learn its nuances.

Type-191

Recommended Build
Slot	Attachment
Barrel	Type-191 Leviathan Tactical
Gas Block	Type-191 High Flow Gas Regulator
Muzzle	Bastion Horizontal Compensator
Foregrip	Secret Order Bevel Foregrip
Rear Grip	New Type Samurai
Stock	UR Spec Ops
Optic	Any (Magnified preferred)

The Type-191 has emerged as one of the premier assault rifles in the game. Its base configuration mirrors the M4A1’s performance, but its distinctive Gas Block attachment elevates its firing rate. With this enhancement, the Type-191 achieves an optimal TTK of just 0.2 seconds with body shots, marking it as the fastest-killing assault rifle in Delta Force.

Additionally, its smooth firing mechanics contribute to low vertical recoil and manageable horizontal sway. In terms of precision and reliability at medium range with a 3x scope, it rivals or surpasses the QBZ-95-1, giving it a significant advantage in close-quarters combat.
