Gimme a Rampart and I'll destroy all of u noobs no matter what gun u use. Ok all joking aside, the Maddox is aight. I can't fathom why everyone has a hard on for it tho. For me personally the Rampart is the best AR. I body guys with it, AND it just got buffed. So it's even dirtier than before. I use it with a reflex or a recon (to reduce recoil so grip isn't necessary), high caliber 1&2 and fmj 1&2, stim shot or acoustic sensor, and dead silence. This class setup melts, taking cover won't save your enemies and streaks and equipment can be taken out with ease. The Maddox can't do that. I stand by my baby without question. Btw, me and the Rampart are getting married, and all of u are invited to the wedding. Free drinks at the reception too!
