Before we give you each type's best guns, the first 2 are the best of the best in the game. Generally, you can only find them in airdrops. The rest of the list can be found all over the game's map.
Shotgun: Mastiff

Sniper: Kraber
It is similar to the AWM in PUBG. Each shot to the body causes 125 and 250 damage to the body and the head respectively. It is deadly in the experts' hand.
The weapon accompanies a 6x-10x variable optic when you get it. Be careful, however, it just accompanies 8 bullets so you shouldn't waste them.
Light machine gun: Spitfire
This one has got a good fire rate and each shot causes 20 damage to the body and 40 damage to the head. The DPS is ranged at 80 and the fact that it excels at either short and long range makes it a great all-round weapon. Each clip contains a total of 35 heavy bullets.
Submachine gun: Prowler Burst
The Prowler can be compelling to you as the best assistant if you prefer a burst gun over an automatic one. It has a 5-round burst and good recoil level to help you keep your accuracy and excel at medium range.
Assault rifle: R-301
Being different than other classes of guns, AR really depends on preference and personal opinion. Although, This gun gives you a decent mix of mobility and usability.
The damage may be a little bit weaker than the others but it is easy to use with little to no recoil at all. R-301 may be the best choice for the newbies of the game if they haven't figured out their favorite style.
Sniper: Triple Take
Because the Kraber is hard to find, the 2nd best alternative for it can be Triple Take based on its great damage of 69 to the body and 138 to the head.
Though it has some minor side effects such as it uses energy armor or small clip containing only 5 bullets, it is still a decent gun and can be deadly as long as you are accurate enough.
