Review:

A decent AR in its own right, it is more well rounded than the M416 CQB. Though it has 4 points less portability and 2 points more recoil, the change in recoil is only noticeable when spraying for extended periods of time and the portability issue is easily remedied with a speed vest. Compared to the CQB and its iTech, the M416N and its ACOG allow for a more surgical approach to combat. Rather than mainly being confined to spraying as with the CQB, the M416N is able to pick off heads at a range and fire controlled bursts accurately due to the magnification and smaller dot of the ACOG. While not as sprayable as the CQB, the M416N's recoil is still very controllable and can easily cut others down at CQC. Personally I feel that the M416N has less damage drop off, but that may only be due to the fact that I can consistently land hits with the ACOG scope rather than guessing with the iTech. The M416N also looks quite sick. Ultimately the M416N is a more precise and more MRC oriented CQB.

The recoil pattern of the M416N allows one to fire bursts of 3-4 rounds in scope accurately, while also allowing one to spray down enemies at close range. The spread is barely larger than the CQB though the recoil pattern goes diagonally after 10 or so shots.

Pros:
 * ACOG scope allows for more precision and range than the iTech
 * Cosmetically one of the best looking ARs
 * Can do everything the CQB can, but also has a longer reach

Cons:
 * Preattached ACOG and the inability to attach an iTech
 * Worse recoil pattern than the CQB
 * Less portable
