Top 10 Guns From Modern Warfare 2 In Real Life

The Best Guns Of Modern Warfare 2

The Call Of Duty franchise is renowned for exciting, fast-paced gunplay and memorable action setpieces - and the latest installment is no exception. 

Modern Warfare 2 (2022) packs a lot into its roughly 6.5-hour campaign, but where the game really shines is competitive online multiplayer. Players can completely customize their loadouts with a wide variety of firearms and throwables, from no-scope snipers to suppressed PDWs. 

While these choices often come down to personal preference, some guns are decidedly better than others. Here’s our list of the top 10 guns from Call Of Duty: Modern Warfare 2

10. TAQ 56 (FN Scar 16)

The venerable FN Scar 16 makes an appearance as the TAQ 56 in-game, and is one of the most popular primaries with players. It has balanced damage and accuracy stats, plus it supports just about every attachment so it is also one of the most adaptable.

9. M13B (Sig Sauer MCX Spear LT)

Based on the brand-new Sig MCX Spear LT, the M13B is an incredibly versatile choice for aggressive CQB. Throw on a suppressor and it makes for a low-profile yet highly effective primary for stacking up killstreaks. 

8. Lachmann Sub (HK MP5)

No Call Of Duty would be complete without the iconic HK MP5 submachine gun (known simply as the Lachmann Sub in-game). Like it’s real-life counterpart, the Lachmann Sub sees widespread use as it is one of the most dependable platforms available to players. 

7. SP-R 208 (Bergara B14)

The perfect choice for the long-range snipers or those roguish run-n-gun no-scope thrillseekers, The SP-R 208 is inspired by the Bergara B14 - a proven and reliable precision shooting platform. Just don’t get caught camping!

6. FSS Hurricane (AR-57)

Combine the blistering fire rate of the P90 with the ergonomics of the AR platform and you get the FSS Hurricane A.K.A. the AR-57. This subgun is great for laying down suppressing fire or surgically taking out enemies in tight quarters.

5. Kastov 545 (AK-74)

The real-life AK-74 is the most widely used shoulder-fired firearm in the world, and this translates into gameplay as well. Deployed properly, it is a smooth yet punchy primary in a manageable package that is ideally suited for any play style. 

4. M16 (M16A4)

A true classic, the M16 is an obvious choice for this list as it is instantly recognizable and remains incredibly popular in-game despite a host of more contemporary alternatives. The M16 in MW2 has great range and supports ACOG optics, a definite improvement over past iterations. 

3. Lockwood MK2 (Marlin 45 / 70)

The Lockwood MK2 (Marlin 45 / 70 in real life) is a lever-action rifle with solid accuracy and tremendous impact. Watch out for players running a scope because they can one-shot enemies from across the map.

2. Expedite 12 (Benelli M4)

Speaking of punishing primaries, the Benelli M4, or Expedite 12 as it is known in the game, really packs a wallop. It is capable of clearing entire rooms in mere seconds, thereby expediting victory for those who wield this robust semi-auto shotgun.

1. .50 GS (Magnum Research Desert Eagle)

The Magnum Research Desert Eagle chambered in .50 AE may not be the most practical handgun, but that doesn’t mean it isn’t fun to mix into a loadout. It’s a hard-hitting pistol with phenomenal damage - and you just can’t beat that cool factor.
