Guns of BGMI: Understanding the M416. Why Is It So Popular?

M416 is one of the most popular guns in Battlegrounds Mobile India. Among the guns of BGMI, M416 is considered to be one of the most well-rounded guns. This gun can be used in close range, mid-range as well as long-range fights. The gun also supports an array of attachments, which gives players multiple options of playing around with the attachments and figure out what is best for them and their role in the squad. But what makes the gun so special and different from the other guns?

Reliability

M416 will never disappoint you, doesn't matter which range you use, it always does the job done. In close range, M416 is a decent weapon, of course, it's not strong as other weapons, but it's very reliable, and if you could connect those critical headshots then you can easily win your fights. When it comes to mid-range fights, this is where M416 shines, most of you use m4 because you want to spray down your enemies, and there is no other gun that can do better than M416 when it comes to spraying on enemies. M416 will be the strongest gun in mid-range fights, and when it comes to long-range fights, you can either go prone and spray at your enemies, or you could do single tapping like this which is very easy, and really helpful when you couldn't control the recoil but there is one problem in long-range fights. That is when fighting against bolt action sniper rifles, they have the ability to one-shot-kill, so try to avoid taking fights against bolt action snipers. If you want to spray at a moving vehicle, M416 is the best for that, and also spraying from a moving vehicle is also easier with an M416, since its bullets will travel at a speed of around 900 m/s, which for comparison, is faster than Kar98k's bullets, so you will most likely connect all of your shots.

Easy to Use

The next reason why M416 is one of the easiest guns to use is that the recoil of M416 is one of the easiest to control when compared to other assault rifles. For example, if you ask any player which is the easiest gun to use in BGMI, they would say M416. The recoil on this gun is easy to control, not too high or not too, low perfectly balanced as all things should be. When you're new to this game, most of you would prefer to use M416 for everything because you find this gun very easy to handle.

Versatile

The next reason and the best thing about M416 is that you can literally pair this gun with any weapon in this game, and you would be just fine. This might be one of the best reason why many people use M416, because doesn't matter what weapon you use, as long as you have M416 you're fine.

Easy to Find

Finding the M416 is somehow easy, the spawn rate of M416 is not super rare, or super high, it's sort of in-between. Sometimes you find this gun easily, sometimes you don't. That's the thing about M416, the spawn rate of this gun is not super high, so finding it can sometimes be difficult, but you also have to realize that, you're not the only one who's looking for the M416. Your enemies are also doing the same thing, and some of them may have already found it. So when you kill an enemy there is a higher chance of you finding the M416 in that crate, because enemies are the best source of loot at any stage of the game, they will always collect the best loot possible. So when you kill them, you will get the best loot that they have been searching for the past few minutes.
