One of Modern Warfare 3’s most hated weapons is ?? ??? ?????? ??????? ???????? ?? ????? ??? ???????actually a secret beast in Warzone, with a TTK that rivals some of the best guns in the game.
Although there are nearly 200 weapons to choose from in Warzone, there are usually only one or two that dominate the meta at any given time. In Season 4, that’s been the Krig C, thanks to its impressive damage and easy-to-use recoil.
But there are plenty of other powerful options that go unnoticed, especially from MW2 and MW3, now that the BO6 guns have taken over. One deadly rifle you might have completely forgotten about is the Sidewinder, but don’t let its reputation fool you into thinking it’s useless.

When MW3 first arrived, the Sidewinder Battle Rifle was branded one of the worst guns in both multiplayer and battle royale. This was mostly due to its slow fire rate and unpredictable recoil, which made it extremely difficult to land shots consistently.

Article continues after adWe used TrueGameData to see exactly how the stats compare and the numbers proved that the Sidewinder has what it takes to compete with meta guns. Its TTK is virtually identical to the Krig C over the first 20 meters, and it can kill in 850ms at 80 meters, compared to the 910ms of its rival.
However, as the YouTuber noted, it does come with the drawback that its recoil is still fairly tough to use compared to the more accurate BO6 guns. That being said, with a little bit of patience and practice in the Firing Range, you’ll soon learn to handle it.

So, while it’s never going to be as easy to use as the Krig C or Kilo 141, don’t sleep on the Sidewinder. It may take a little time to master, but the reward is one of the fastest-killing long-range guns in Warzone heading into Season 4 Reloaded.
