Top 7 ARs in Warzone Season 1

There are seven MW3 ARs available in Warzone Season 1 and I've ranked all of them based on two primary stats: time-to-kill (TTK) and accuracy. I've also provided the best loadout builds for these guns for you to try out in BR and Resurgence.

1. DG-56

If you want the absolute best gun to use in Warzone right now, look no further than the DG-56 Assault Rifle. The three-round burst fire weapon has an extremely fast TTK and very little recoil. Burst weapons have always been difficult to balance and are either overpowered or useless. Try out this DG-56 build now as it's most likely to get nerfed soon.

2. FR 5.56

The second weapon on my list is the FR 5.56 Assault Rifle, also known as the FAMAS in the Call of Duty community. Just like the last gun, this one's also an overpowered burst-fire AR.

3. RAM-7

The RAM-7 AR is a new yet familiar weapon you can unlock via the Season 1 Battle Pass. This weapon allows you to put down enemies insanely fast at all ranges, however, you must use recoil reduction attachments as shown in the build above to boost its accuracy.

4. MCW

The next MW3 Assault Rifle on the list is the MCW, previously called the ACR in the original MW2. Using this weapon I've realized that it doesn't kill nearly as fast as other MW3 ARs, but it's so accurate and easy to control that you don't miss a bullet even at longer ranges, which in turn makes its effective TTK much better.

5. Holger 556

You can also try out the Holger 556 if you don't care much about TTK in Warzone. It's a fun weapon to use and I have the best accuracy build for you in the image above.

6. MTZ-556

The MTZ-556 has a fast fire rate and very low recoil, however, its 50-round magazine capacity holds it back a bit compared to other weapons. You can definitely give it a try and see if it works for you.

7. SVA 545

The final weapon on this list is the SVA 545 Assault Rifle. This is by no means a bad weapon, but the other guns in this category feel better when it comes to having good stats, primarily, a competitive TTK. If you want a decent low recoil gun, you can give this AR a shot in Warzone.
