For good close-up work, you can't go past a Mossington.
ARs are generally most effective at a range bracket starting where SMGs start to drop off in effectiveness. FRKN-3K and Rockstedi have a harsh learning curve in the handling, but they're great weapons for the longer end of the AR range scale, particularly when scoped - with any AR other than those two, NEVER FORGET TO BURST FIRE. When you're firing on full auto, you may as well be facing the wrong way.
Gorund is my personal preference of the ARs, it's got solid stats all-round, and is comfortable being equipped with basically any attachment combo you can think of - it's the most versatile, imo, but others are better for their specific roles. Euston is a really good weapon as well.
Honestly, though, TRY EVERYTHING. If you have time, try everything with every combination of attachments that seems even remotely like it would be useful to you.
I just decided to test the use of COGAs on pistols tonight - with a Sea Eagle, I got most kills in every match I used it. I alternated playing as Soldier (in which I also earned "best Soldier" every time, and Operative (Wasn't quite so effective for getting "Best Operative," but it was still fun)
