Top 11 Best Guns in CoD Mobile Season 2 2023

Now, let’s look at the best guns in CoD Mobile in more detail:

1. Krig 6

For those unaware, Krig 6 was added to CoD Mobile’s vast arsenal in Season 9. Now, what makes this gun at the very top of the best guns in CoD Mobile list is the fact that it is highly versatile. Just like the Kilo and M13, this gun is not difficult to use. The only downside is that the iron sight is just not good enough.

This will make you miss those shots at long range. So, using a red dot becomes crucial. But then, the gun has a variety of amazing attachments to make use of. Using a red dot makes you take up one vital slot in the gunsmith. Then again, you can’t compromise your aim. If you have the Mythic variant, those problems automatically disappear because of the pay-to-win ironsight.

The TTK (Time To Kill) of this gun is phenomenal as well, and so is the surprisingly good BSA (Bullet Spread Accuracy). However, if you are someone who takes fights at close quarters, this is not for you. A fast-firing SMG will be more up your alley, in that case. Either way, the Krig 6 is surely one of the best guns in CoD Mobile Season 2 2023.

2. EM2

The EM2 was added to the already massive CoD Mobile arsenal back in December 2022 (Season 11 Ultimate Frontier) update. Upon its release, the gun was not exactly considered to be anywhere near the top tier.

Overall, it was a very slow gun which made it unusable in Ranked matches. However, CoD Mobile has buffed the gun and changed it completely. The buff to its 27.4 Ranger Heavy Barrel and the 40-round extended magazine was significant.

These buffs increased the bullet speed of the gun as well as its mobility. Now, you can head into Ranked and absolutely annihilate enemies. Let’s just say that this gun feels like the newly introduced Maddox is on steroids. Totally unstoppable and easily one of the best guns to use in CoD Mobile Season 2 2023.

3. SKS

The SKS is one gun that remains untouched in Call of Duty Mobile. This marksman rifle has been a force to reckon with ever since it was introduced in February 2021. Now, the reason why the SKS is not used by a lot of players in ranked lobbies is that it is punishing.

The gun is not exactly the easiest to use. In fact, it does require a decent amount of skill to get kills with this. The gun is pretty much a two-to-three tap from any range. If you land a headshot, that is an instant one-shot kill.

You need to have good aim to land shots with this gun. So, if you want to dominate every match, master this gun. It is surely worth it. There is a reason why the gun was recently banned in the competitive scene. Easily one of the best guns in CoD Mobile till date.

4. CBR4

The CBR4 is one gun that has been at the very top of every best gun in CoD Mobile list for a very long time now. Although the gun received a nerf to its reload time and YKM light stock attachment, it still shreds.

In fact, that would be an understatement as well. This gun just does not feel like an SMG in any way. It performs surprisingly well in the mid to long ranges as well, taking down Assault Rifle users too.

The gun was overshadowed by entries like the Switchblade previously. However, it is back right up on this list and is one gun that you should definitely give a try right away.

5. SVD/XPR – Best Sniper In CoD Mobile

Getting shot right, left and centre by snipers? You are not the only one. The frustration is real, and we agree. However, instead of being on the receiving end of it, it can be the other way around.

Just use the SVD or XPR and spam your way through the most difficult of matches. Of course, it is going to take a little bit of time to master it. But, trust us, it is worth it.

These two guns are just way too overpowered and do not even require an excellent sniper to make them viable. You can be a half-decent sniper and still bag several kills with it.

These snipers are formidable weapons of choice in CoD Mobile ranked lobbies right now. Overall, the two best snipers in CoD Mobile Season 2 2023 for sure.

6. Maddox

The Maddox is the newest weapon in CoD Mobile. Honestly, we are happy about the gun. It looks pretty cool, yes. But, it is the utility of the weapon that makes it a good gun to use. Besides, you can change the way the gun works via attachments.

If you want a relatively slow-firing weapon, the Echo Dot attachment is a good one to use. It makes it seem like it belongs to the Man O’ War and EM2 family.

On the other hand, if you take that attachment away, the fire rate increases significantly. It all comes down to your personal preference. However, the challenging thing about the Maddox is its recoil.

It will take some time to get used to the absurd horizontal recoil on the gun. Once you do, you will surely shred with this. We noticed that putting in a red dot sight did help to make using the gun easier. You could try that too.

We know that a lot of you out there may not agree with this. But, the Maddox is actually one of the best guns in CoD Mobile Season 2 2023.

7. Switchblade

Back when CoD Mobile Season 10 dropped on November 2022, the Switchblade was unstoppable. This gun was as powerful as the CBR4 meta and needed a Nerf badly. It did receive one.

However, the gun is still a super powerful SMG in CoD Mobile. In fact, had to make it to our best guns list too. Yes, you can still dominate Ranked lobbies with it.

Of course, don’t take long-range fights with AR users. Otherwise, you are more than good to go and can reach Legendary in no time with it.

8. KN44

The KN44 received a major buff last season and has been an amazing gun to use since. It has never been unusable, but it just got a lot better. In fact, it comes very close to being as good as the Krig-6. Outshines the Krig-6 even in certain scenarios.

The gun’s horizontal recoil may be a small problem if you are not used to playing it. However, not a big deal. Once you start using it, there’s no going back. We can assure you that this gun may end up coming in your list of top 3 ranked guns.

9. Chopper

The Chopper has always been a very viable weapon in Call of Duty Mobile. If it has been some time since you last used the gun, give it a try now. You will love it! Of course, don’t forget to use the Heavy Handle attachment. The Chopper is incomplete without it.

Some may say that the Holger is better than the Chopper, but the way the Chopper works with the heavy handle is just plain unfair! It is that good. Besides, the Chopper is honestly more fun to use than the Holger.

Just remember to fight using head glitches and hold choke points. Your enemies will not be able to defeat you in any way once you do that. Easily one of the best guns and possibly, the best LMG in CoD Mobile.

10. Man O’ War

Remember the holy trinity? Yes, we are talking about the 3-shot ASM10, DR-H and Man O’ War meta. Gone are those days, true. However, the Man O’ War received probably its biggest buff this CoD Mobile Season 2.

In case you are wondering, the gun’s overall mobility and lift time has been enhanced. This makes it a very reliable weapon to use in Call of Duty Mobile Ranked matches right now.

It takes up the number 10 spot because the EM2 and Maddox just do what it does a tad bit better. Plus, the Man O’ War is an acquired taste. If you have never liked the gun, chances are that now will not feel any different to you.

That does not change the fact that it indeed is one of the best guns to use in the game right now.

11. R9-O – Best Shotgun in CoD Mobile

You probably did not see this coming because you haven’t used the gun yet. If you have been in the dark, give it a try now. Play a couple of normal Multiplayer matches to figure out how you want to play this gun.

Once you are comfortable with it, use it in Ranked. The results will blow you away, for sure. Also, if you are using the R9-O, do use the MFT Heavy Smoothbore barrel. That is how the gun really shines.

With the kind of one-shot potential and range it has, the R9-O feels less like a shotgun and more like a Marksman rifle. Although don’t go all guns blazing against range players. You won’t make it.

The right way to use the R9-O is either by going for a tactical camping kind of gameplay or the super aggressive kind. Both ways, the gun will absolutely mop the floor with enemies. Not just one of the best guns in CoD Mobile but also the best shotgun, in our opinion.

Best Guns in CoD Mobile Season 11 – Honorable Mentions!

1. Holger 26

The Holger-26 has always been a good LMG. It has had quite a history of buffs and nerfs. Now, the gun has been buffed again, making it the best LMG in CoD Mobile Season 11. Activision is really taking it up a notch when it comes to LMGs.

LMGs have always been very underused in the game. Seems like the developers are doing anything and everything they can to make LMGs stand out. If holding a corner and spamming is what they want you to do, why not?

Moreover, the Holger is more than just that. You can play it in a variety of different ways, and that is what makes it so good. There are so many gunsmith combinations to use. You can try out all of them and find your own sweet spot with the gun. Once you do, victory is all yours for sure.

2. DR-H

The DR-H is back and finally feels a lot better to use! If you have been a part of the Holy Trinity meta seasons, you are surely happy to see this gun make it to the honourable mentions. Why honourable mentions, you ask?

There are several fast-firing guns in the game that will just take you down in an instant. The DR-H will still feel slower than, say, guns like the Maddox or Krig-6.

If you are someone who does not play aggressively, this is a good weapon for you. However, it will not be ideal for any other play styles. Still, a very good gun and still the favourite of many players in Call of Duty Mobile.

3. M16

The M16 was considered by the community to be the worst gun in the game. From shots not getting registered to the terrible burst intervals, the gun was just not viable in any mode. However, after the super recent buff to the gun, you may prefer using it over the KSP.

Yes, you heard that right! This gun SHREDS in the right hands! It does still take a bit of skill to use it. But, once you get the hang of it, you will fall in love with the gun. More so, if you have always been a fan of burst weapons.

The one-burst potential of the M16 has increased drastically. Now, even if you are not someone who likes burst weapons, you can use the Wild Fire perk on the gun instead. This immediately makes it a semi-automatic assault rifle. Enough to make it a very powerful gun to use in ranked matches.

4. MX9

Last year, the MX9 was the undisputed king of SMGs in CoD Mobile when Season 8 dropped. However, after it was nerfed, the gun was forgotten. It was still not bad. The gun was still a pretty viable option in ranked matches and scrims.

However, now, the gun has been buffed all over again. This makes it take up a spot in our list of honourable mentions. Some would even say that the gun belongs in the Top 5 category.

The reduced horizontal recoil of the gun makes it a lot easier to handle now. Rest assured, this is a reliable SMG to use in CoD Mobile Season 2.

5. BK57

We were so happy to see BK57 in the list of buffs added. The buffs to the gun primarily lie with its 7.62mm magazine and OWC ranger barrel. However, you can use the gun without them and the gun will still feel pretty viable. But with those two attachments, you are going to decimate lobbies!

However, this is not a gun you can use to play aggressively. It is more of a hold choke point and ploughs down enemies kind of a gun. So, if you are that kind of a player, this is one gun you should definitely use in CoDm.

6. QQ9

How can we ever forget about the QQ9? No matter how much Nerf the gun goes through, it will still be a fan favourite. The gun was buffed last season and has been one of the best guns in CoD Mobile. Now, even in Season 9, the gun is seen a lot in ranked matches.

Why not? The phenomenal magazine size, excellent firing rate and incredible mobility just make it a force to be reckoned with. The QQ9 definitely does deserve a spot on our list of best guns in CoD Mobile.

7. DL Q33

The DL Q33 maintains its status as the most potent sniper rifle in Call of Duty Mobile Season 6, retaining its superiority. No significant alterations have occurred. It remains the game’s premier one-shot sniper choice, valued for its elevated damage output, exceptional precision scope, and swift mobility during usage. The DL Q33 continues to dominate the multiplayer scene, earning favour across the player community, from beginners to seasoned professionals.

8. Razorback

The Razorback has received enhancements, including a boost in damage, an extended effective range, and improved mobility. Evaluate its performance against the renowned CBR4 by testing it out immediately.

With these upgrades, the Razorback proves to be highly effective in close-quarters combat, offering enhanced mobility that allows for agile movement while ensuring precise accuracy. Its substantial damage output also proves formidable in quickly overpowering adversaries.

9. FFAR-1

In Call of Duty: Mobile Season 5, a new assault rifle, the FFAR-1, was introduced. Renowned for its swift rate of fire and exceptional accuracy, this firearm proves to be versatile and valuable across various combat scenarios.

Being the assault rifle with the highest rate of fire in Call of Duty: Mobile, the FFAR-1 stands out as an optimal choice for players who prefer high-firing weapons. Its notable mobility and accuracy further enhance its effectiveness on the battlefield.
