Optimal Lockwood 680 Configuration in MW3 Zombies

The Lockwood 680 is a formidable choice for close-quarters combat in MW3 Zombies. Enhancing its capabilities requires specific attachments for mobility and power, especially effective when upgraded. While you would typically avoid using shotguns in MW3, the latest Season 2 Horde Hunt brings new rewards and challenges, making it a perfect opportunity to dust off your shotgun collection.

Best Attachments for the Lockwood 680 in MW3

There are multiple attachments for the Lockwood 680 in MW3 that will do the job nicely, but this is my favorite loadout, and I really think it makes this shotty shine with deadliness.

  • Barrel: Lockwood Defender Heavy Long Barrel increases range, recoil control, and bullet velocity and adds six more slugs to the chamber, making it the most crucial upgrade.
  • Ammunition: Bolo Shells make this shotgun into a slug-firing powerhouse. I especially like the added limb damage it has.
  • Stock: Sawed Off Mod enhances mobility, allowing for agile movement while firing. This is a crucial feature to have in zombie mode, where speed is essential to survive.
  • Laser: Kimura RYL33 Laser Light boosts maneuverability with faster sprint-to-fire and ADS speeds.
  • Bolt: Express Light Bolt speeds up rechambering, which is crucial for a shotgun with lengthy reload times like the Lockwood 680. As a tip, do not pick Titanic Heavy Bolt until you unlock Express Light Bolt, as it will actually slow down your rechambering speed even more.

Tactical Usage Tips for the Lockwood 680

Aiming down sights with the Lockwood 680 tightens the pellet spread significantly, making it more effective against tougher enemies like Disciples and Mimics. This tactic ensures accuracy and maximizes damage output, which is essential for taking on stronger foes within the zombie hordes.

Alternatively, just load up the 12 gauge and use a Tactical stance, making yourself even more mobile in the process!
