Compared to previous games, Call of Duty: Vanguard and Warzone Pacific certainly have different game paces than fans were originally used to. As a result, barrel accessories have become famous for helping guns get quicker kills in Vanguard's quick action or for producing better accuracy in more methodical battle royale. While there are many that can elevate your talents, there are only a select few who truly evolve their dedicated weapons.
The best gun barrels in Call of Duty: Vanguard
Kovalevskaya 604mm (DP27)
As of this writing, the DP27 has the highest level of firepower and second highest rate of speed of all LMGs. So, we wouldn't blame anyone for choosing it on the STG44 and MP40 as well. This is largely due to the skill of its 604mm Kovalevskaya barrel, which skyrockets its damage range by 60 percent and bullet speed by 40 percent. It also provides an additional 10 percent in horizontal recoil control. Its hip firing accuracy drops a bit, but this barrel definitely allows the DP27 to shoot accurately from all ranges.
Sawn (double barrel)
The shotgun known simply as the Double Barrel is potentially one of the most popular weapons with which you will spot enemies in Vanguard. You'll have to thank the gun's Sawed-Off barrel attachment for that, as that's what shapes the Double Barrel to be the best close-range weapon to find in the shooter. Sawed-Off increases overall pistol damage by an immense 40 percent, while also increasing your movement and ADS walking speed. In summary, for close-up maps like Das Haus, the Sawed-Off barrel should be your best friend when aggressively pushing opponents.
712mm Shiraishi sniper (Type 99)
We're not exactly fans of barrels that have a long list of drawbacks, but the Type 712's 99mm Shiraishi sniper barrel has our approval. It's disheartening to see that the Shiraishi 712mm solves much of the ADS time, sprint to shoot, and ADS gun travel time, but it's not like the gun is an SMG. This accessory is best suited to those who shoot long range, as it strengthens recoil control, jerk resistance and idle sway, each by more than 40 percent. Better yet, the barrel offers small bonuses to the Type 99's overall and vital damage.
VDD 760mm 05B (STG44)
It is no secret that the STG44 assault rifle is one of the best weapons the game has to offer and will likely be for the entire life span of the game. Since it is already fraught with damage, the VDD 760mm 05B barrel ensures that this top-tier weapon is almost completely free of recoil and idle wobble. When applied, this accessory adds another 15 percent to the damage range and reduces vertical recoil by nine percent. As fantastic as it sounds, the VDD 760mm 05B goes even further, minimizing both horizontal recoil and idle swing control by 50 percent. So ultimately, the attachment may not have garish attributes, but it greatly strengthens Vanguard's best eliminator.
ZAC 300 mm (PPSH-41)
It may not be the MP-40, but the PPSH-41 continues to dominate in another Call of Duty title and has prevailed primarily due to the 300mm ZAC barrel. Since most SMG barrels sacrifice a lot for a while in return, the 300mm ZAC barrel trades just one inch of player movement speed for maximum recoil control and bullet speed. More specifically, the PPSH-41 becomes a mid-range terror, a necessary element in all game modes.
The best gun barrels in Call of Duty: Warzone Pacific
19.7 ″ Ranger (Sixth War)
In a battle royale that mainly crowns those who prioritize medium- and long-range offense, the 19,7 Ranger barrel makes the Krig 6 one of the fiercest weapons to fight against from afar. Even with over 30 assault rifles in the game, this accessory helps the gun become the absolute best at long range with its huge increase in bullet speed and vertical recoil control. It can remove a small percentage of the hip fire accuracy, but surprisingly the gun still struggles with the best at short and medium range.
21.8″ Task Force (Stoner 63)
LMGs are known for their terrifying accuracy and kick, but the Stoner 21,8's 63-inch Task Force barrel is an excellent add-on for all novice and veteran gamers. The reason is that it offers a tremendous amount of bullet speed, recoil control, and damage range that you can't really achieve with a gun of its size. Despite taking away much of your movement speed, expect the weapon to become pretty smooth to handle, likely resulting in a number of kills for almost anyone who uses it.
Orbweaver 360mm BC (NZ-41)
As many will have noticed when comparing the stats of all assault rifles, Vanguard's NZ-41 entered the Warzone scene as one of the biggest damage of all. The only problem holding him back is his absurd pistol butt; however, the Orbweaver 360mm BC manages to completely erase that problem. The attack provides a substantial increase in accuracy and control, while also reducing the amount of swing you may have previously experienced while aiming downward. In summary, this NZ-41 barrel definitely gives the STG44 a run for its money.
Singuard Custom 27.6 ″ (Modern Warfare Kar98k)
While Warzone Pacific has included dozens of additional snipers in recent years, the Kar98k's Modern Warfare iteration continues to be one of the most used in the category. Its popularity can certainly be attributed to its 27,6-inch Singuard Custom barrel attachment, which allows the weapon to take down enemies from almost any range. As for what it includes, expect this Singuard Custom to provide better damage range, bullet speed and recoil control, making it one of the best snipers in terms of range and accuracy.
Integral subsonic suppressor (Modern Warfare MP5)
Range may be the key to winning Warzone games, but it's hard to deny that the MP5's integral subsonic suppressor is incredibly fun to use. With this accessory applied, the submachine gun is the perfect weapon for those experiencing a more stealthy style of play. The MP5 is already a brutal weapon as it is, but the barrel suppressor silences all shots and gives you stellar ADS time. It will also ensure that enemies cannot see any of your shots, leaving them in the dark where you come from.
