So basically the majority of the people have tried most or all unlocks by now. Now we can possibly comment on every gun after the patch. What are your favorite unlocks and least favorite unlocks and why.
Favorites:
G36c: The must have gun for the noobs. This gun is the most have gun, for anyone actually, in the game in my opinion. Its so good that its almost cheating. First of all this gun has little to no re-coil at all PLUS its powerful. So basically you can kill anyone just by holding down the fire button from close/medium range and you would think it should be bad at long range but NO. I've played with this gun for awhile and it sometimes amazes me on how easy it is to get people from thousands of yards away with a few bursts or single shots.
G3: The elitest gun. While this gun takes a little gettin used to since its usage style is very different from other rifles, once you get used to it, its a very deadly high effective rifle. This gun exceeds at long/medium range and is deadly at close range. I see myself Picking people off left and right just by taping the mouse button 2-3 times. A usual scenario of me using the G3 would be like this: Tap-Tap-Tap (dead) Tap-Tap (dead) Tap-Tap-Tap (dead). The most effective gun when there are groups of people around at medium long range in a staionary position. Remember, this gun is mainly supposed to be used using semi-auto but do not run around with it in that mode since you will get owned in close range with it on.

M95: Great upgrade sniper to MEC and definetely China. Feels sluggish compared to the M24 and like someone said before, same damage as the M24 but less acurate. The plus side? the feeling you get when a attack heli is hovering and firing at you when you take a shot thru the window and see it spiraling upwards into the clouds or shooting jet pilots while they wait for its boosters to take off
PKM: Although it may be not THAT much of an upgrade against its predecessors with a aim site that takes getting used to, it is deadly powerful and is another way to take down helis and light vehicles other than your SRAW.
Jackhammer: Great automatic shotty for close range superiority. I would put this weapin up there in my favorites but i didnt get enough play time to really back up my statements. Anything close range is dead.
DAO-12: Just like the Jackhammer, grat at close range. The only thing i didnt like about this gun is the awful recoil. Sometimes while fighting close range you tend to shoot very fast and this thing goes all over the place. In my opinion, the Jackhammer is the better close range toy. The only thing holding me back from putting this gun in my least favorite is that is sounds amazing (if that means anything) and its way better than the damn Mp5 so it's actually an "UPGRADE"
Least Favorite
L85a1: I dont know why but everyone worships this gun. In my opinion, its the worst upgrade you can get. Not a bad gun overall but the M16, AK-101, and AK-47 are far more superior guns. First of all, maybe im comparing this too much with the G36c. While the L85a1 may have good long range accuracy, in those close range fights where you have to go full-auto, the bullets go all over the place like its a support weapon. Compare this gun with the regular medic guns you get. M16, very good at all ranges and very predictable recoil. AK-101, one of the most damaging guns in the game and deadly at close/medium range and holds its own at long range. AK-47, full auto destructive mayhem. I bet you anything that if the L85a1 was the regular medic gun and the regular medic guns were the real upgrades you will see everyone using the latter.
well i never believed i would write all this when i started the thread but here ya go. my reviews for each gun from all my experience playing BF2. I hope this helps out anyone deciding on which unlock they want to choose.

, but my favorites are the g36c, pkm, and g3 due to the fact all are weapons that can be used in more or less all maps effectivly. The l8 is a good gun but I like the m16a2 more just because it is better close up and just the same at range if not better depending how you use it. The pkm was very good before the patch and now is overpowered so I love it
