CoD Warzone close range weapons that will show you why they are a game changer
Personally, I prefer shooting down enemies from a distance. Warzone's map is quite large, so it's always best to take down enemies from a safe distance, but sometimes, you have to get down and dirty. When people sneak up on you, only the right weapon can help you stay alive.
Melee weapons often don't work because they are too slow, so you need a high-damage close-range weapon that gets the job done in a second. Let's take a look at some of the best close-range weapons Warzone has to offer.
1. Cold War AK47
A classic even moths are drawn to it
- High damage
- High accuracy
- Multiple builds
- Easy to use
Cold War's AK47 is among the most popular guns overall. Depending on your build, it can be highly efficient as a mid-far gun, but it can also help you gun down enemies at close ranges. First of all, the weapon does a lot of damage, so you don't need more than 3 or 4 rounds to take down an enemy.
It does slow your movement down a little, but if you're accurate, it will help you win almost every close-range firefight. Don't forget to add the GRU suppressor and the Liberator attachments for the best effect.
2. Modern Warfare MP5
It's just not the same without the suppressor
- High damage
- Lightweight
- Low recoil
- Fast firing
Modern Warfare's MP5 has been a fan favorite from day one. It's lightweight, fast, and highly responsive. It's one of the best guns for body shots and headshots, even though it got nerfed multiple times during the season. MW's MP5 is still a relevant close-range gun because it has the best mix of accuracy and damage.
However, the gun lacks mobility, especially when you install all five attachments. It might slow you down even more, but a 45-round mag and a monolithic suppressor will work together to help you take down enemies in seconds. Give it a try and you'll see why the gun is still so popular.
3. Mac 10
Feeling like a gangsta yet? Mac-10 will make you feel like you're a menace II society
- Fast movement speed
- Low recoil
- Large magazine
- Fast-firing
Black Ops's Mac 10 is definitely a close-range weapon that can get you out of a tight situation. It's the most popular close-range gun in Black Ops, and you can find it as ground loot all over the map. The gun is extremely popular because it has large magazines, extreme mobility, and almost no recoil.
The fact that it has low damage doesn't matter, because it can fire all 53 rounds in under 3 seconds. It has a very short range, so it's extremely powerful in closed spaces. You can easily take down three people with a full mag, which makes this weapon the perfect choice for clutch situations.
4. Bullfrog
Leaping into victory with this fan-favorite
- Extremely fast movement
- Excellent control
- Responsive
- Easy to master
The Bullfrog is probably one of the guns that drives Warzone players crazy the most. It's one of the best guns in the game because it provides extremely fast movement and a large magazine. The Bullfrog is a fan favorite because it's super-efficient in close-range firefights. The fire rate is ridiculously quick and the aim time is more responsive than most other guns.
The best setup is the following - sound suppressor, 7.4" Task Force barrel, Tiger Team Spotlight, and Bruiser under grip. With this setup, no one will be able to outrun or outgun you in a close-range battle.
5. AS VAL
Do you dare to use this demon from Hell?
- High damage
- Fast rate of fire
- No recoil
AS VAL is not a close-range gun for everyone, but it's a complete beast in the right hands. It's a unique weapon because it's got a small 30-round magazine, so every shot counts. The VAL has an incredible TTK, allowing you to dominate every close-combat situation, but only if you're accurate enough.
Make sure that you use the Tac Laser, VLK Strelok stock, and Merc Foregrip to make the gun even more effective at close range. Moreover, the AS VAL can be used as a mid-range weapon, but it does have a significant damage dropoff.
What's Your Favorite Close Range Gun
I'm kinda surprised that almost no one uses shotguns as close-range weapons because that's what shotguns are supposed to do. SMGs are by far the most popular close-range choices, but I'd be more than happy to see your weapon setups. Who knows, I might need a loadout update.
