The MP5A4 is the best close-quarters automatic in Rust. It shares 5.56 ammo with the AK but has a far gentler recoil pattern, making it forgiving to control while still chewing through armor. It is the go-to weapon for raiding interiors and corridor fights.
The CQC Pick
Inside a base or a tight monument the MP5 often beats an AK because its low recoil keeps every round on target. It needs a Tier 3 workbench to craft, putting it firmly in the late-game bracket of the tier list.
