Assault rifles in PUBG Mobile are incredibly useful for every situation in the battle royale game. Compared to Submachine Guns (SMGs), AR weapons generally possess more damage than SMGs and can work well with high-powered scopes such as 4X and 6X.
There are 11 assault rifles in PlayerUnknowns Battlegrounds: Mobile. Each one of them packs a punch so players must test them out in the Practice modes and choose their favorite. In this list of the 5 best assault rifles in PUBG Mobile, we will discuss the meta weapons six years after the game’s launch.
5 Best Assault Rifles In PUBG Mobile: Damage Chart & Effectiveness
PUBG Mobile offers an assortment of AR weapons. Choosing the most damaging ones comes with the disadvantage of a high recoil rate so it would take some practice hours to get handle the meta weapons. Generally, guns that consume 7.62 ammo have a higher damage than 5.56 or .45 ACP.
Here are the 5 best assault rifles in PUBG Mobile.
#1. M416
M416 has been a meta since its debut in PlayerUnknowns Battlegrounds. It has a low vertical recoil, compatible and effective with most scopes especially 4X Scope, and can be used for burst fires by single tapping the ‘Shoot’ button to increase its accuracy.
- Head Damage – 92
- Body Damage – 40
- Ammo – 5.56 mm

#2. Groza
Groza’s recoil is more difficult to control compared to AKM and is limited to Air Drops. However, it has a high rate-of-fire and heavy penetration damage. PUBG Mobile players consider it to be superior to AKM in mid-to-long-range fights.
- Head Damage – 109
- Body Damage – 49
- Ammo – 7.62 mm
#3. AKM
AKM is the best non-air drop AR weapon for close quarters combat. Moreover, players who have mastered its high vertical recoil (the highest recoil in the game) usually choose not to use any scope. It is best compatible with a Red Dot or Horizontal Sight along with a Compensator attachment for lowering recoil.
- Head Damage – 109
- Body Damage – 47
- Ammo – 7.62 mm
#4. MK47 Mutant
A highly unstable gun, the MK47 Mutant is overlooked because of its burst fire. However, it can be very useful for both long-range and close combat. Switch to Single shot and Mutant will act as a damaging sniper rifle while the Burst mode can multiply its 49 base damage to destroy Level 3 armors with ease.
- Head Damage – 109
- Body Damage – 49
- Ammo – 7.62 mm
#5. Beryl M762
Beryl works similar to AKM. Best used with small scopes, it deals devastating damage and has a low vertical recoil compared to the other 7.62 mm guns in this list. The sheer impact of its rounds can be felt by its loud noise which can be muzzled with a Suppresor.
- Head Damage – 105
- Body Damage – 45
- Ammo – 7.62 mm
