However, many players are unable to decide which gun to use in different situations. To clear this confusion, we have compiled all the pros and cons of both the guns in this article.

The M416 has a much lower recoil rate than the AKM in PUBG Mobile. This gun is mostly preferred for long range spray or shoot moving vehicles. For beginners in PUBG Mobile, the M416 is the recommended gun when it comes to a choice between it and the AKM.
