Undead RVD's "Five-Star" Edges:

Melee: Interesting fact about the Saperka: It can be through like a tomahawk. That is one bad ass shovel. Plus, it has reach and much more power behind it. Ballistic Knife beats shovel but shovel beats normal knife.
 * EDGE: Spetsnaz

Close Range: The Makarov is the winning gun. It is more accurate, has more rounds and is still being used. It wins.
 * EDGE: Spetsnaz

Mid Range: The PPSh-43 has a far better range (200 m vs 50) and has WAY more rounds.
 * EDGE: Spetsnaz

Long Range: The CAR-15, while very fast, will jam just as frequently as the M16A1 it is copied from. The AK-74 is accurate and doesn't jam. I say they are even.
 * Edge: Even

Explosive: The grenade is much more versatile, easier to use and can be used instantly. The C-4 has much more powerful not useful in a fire fight. I got to go with the grenade. I believe it's versatility would win the day.
 * Edge: Spetsnaz

Overall: The Spetsnaz is my choice. They have much more versatile weapons that don't jam. Their training is far more rigorous, are in a much physical state and they have been going on much longer. The MACV were disbanded and don't have the bodies and mindset to last.
 * VOTE: SPETSNAZ
