Note: This is not a Ranked list, and the choices may differ for everyone.
What are the best hip-fire weapons in Warzone 2?
Activision launched Modern Warfare 2 and Warzone 2 with a list of gun categories. The developers have implemented various weapons to help players engage in different gunfight ranges. Some of these weapons can be used without aiming down the sights and land most of the shots to eliminate enemies.
However, these weapons have a heavily restricted effective range, rendering them useless in medium to long-range gunfights. Hip fire is also beneficial as players can move more freely and at near-maximum speeds to dodge incoming fire.
1) Lachmann Sub
The Lachmann Sub is among the game's most popular sub-machine guns (SMG). It has great base stats and a flexible receiver that can be used for different builds. One of these setups capitalizes on its hip-fire capability to decimate enemy players in close-range gunfights.
Recommended build:
- Laser: Point-G3P
- Underbarrel: VX Pineapple
- Ammunition: 9mm Hollow Point
- Magazine: 50-Round Drum
- Stock: LM Stockless Mod
2) KV Broadside
The KV Broadside is a powerful automatic shotgun that has dominated most multiplayer and battle royale lobbies. It can dish out big damage numbers and has the potential to wipe out entire squads with ease.
Recommended build:
- Muzzle: SA MX-50
- Barrel: Range Twelve
- Laser: Hipshot L20
- Ammunition: 12 Gauge Dragon's Breath

It is lethal and can take down almost all operators with just two clean hits.
Recommended build:

- Barrel: 29.5" Rifled Barrel
- Laser: VLK LZR 7mW
