Best Longbow build and loadout in MW3

If you're looking for a quickscoping class for Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, look no further than the Longbow Sniper Rifle. Out of the few new snipers available in the game, this one has become a favorite for players with an aggressive playstyle. In this guide, I've provided the best Longbow loadout and class setup to use in MW3.

Best Longbow build Modern Warfare 3 (MW3)

• Stock: Stockless
• Underbarrel: SL Skeletal Vertical Grip / XRK Edge BW-4 Handstop / XTEN TX-12 Handstop
  • Equip whichever of these you've unlocked
• Ammunition: 7.62 High Grain
• Magazine: 10 Round Mag
• Rear Grip: Citadel LV Tactical Grip

Because we're aiming for a quickscope Longbow build, I've used attachments to improve the weapon's handling stats, primarily sprint-to-fire and aim-down-sight (ADS) speeds. The main attachment for this purpose is the Stockless mod, which also increases your movement speed.

For a further boost to the sniper's ADS and sprint-to-fire speed, equip the Citadel LV rear grip and the SL Skeletal foregrip. As of now, the 10 Round magazine reduces the ADS penalty, but you'll still get 25 bullets in your mag, so it's a win-win. Finally, you can go with the High Grain ammo to boost the range. After using it for a while, you'll find out that this gun is a hitmarker machine. Therefore, aim for the upper body and head to get one-shot kills with the Longbow Sniper.
