It would depend on the situation urban or an inclosed wooded/planted area like a "green zone" in Afghanistan I'd want an M-4 with a holographic site with the special sight enhancers that you can flip up for longer ranges (in combat your suppression capability is most important) and I'd want an M203 or ideally an M320 I have seen clips of guys really laying it down with an M320 and a few SAWs they help break contact very effectively.
In a more open area or if I am inside the wire an M-14 would be better because they usually attack from longer range and the M-14 would be in its element.
Of course all things considered any firearm is better than none if you find yourself facing unfriendly persons possessing them.
In an on your own situation any AR-15 based weapon gets a ding do to the extra TLC that it will need so really then something else would be better.
