The Lockwood 300, like all its competitors in the class, can one-shot opponents quite easily. The only drawback of the weapon is its magazine capacity. It is a double-barrel shotgun that can shoot two bullets after which it needs to reload. To make the most out of these two shots, players need to pack in the best attachments available.

Recommended build

  • Barrel: Matuzek 812 Barrel
  • Muzzle: GW Max-99
  • Ammunition: 12-Gauge Slug
  • Laser: 1mW Quick Fire Laser
  • Stock: Heist Stock Mod

The Matuzek 812 barrel increases the bullet velocity and reduces the recoil kick on the Lockwood 300. It also decreases the palette-spread, making the weapon viable for extended ranges.

The GW Max-99 muzzle smoothens the recoil kick even further and increases the damage range. It is a great addition that can help players take down enemies who are a tad bit further away. The 12-Gauge Slug ammunition is a great addition that increases damage and bullet velocity.

The 1mW Quick Fire laser increases the ADS speed without taking a toll on any other weapon stats. The Heist Stock Mod increases ADS speed even further and reduces sprint-to-fire duration as well. This gives the overall weapon a degree of freedom in terms of movement.

This Lockwood 300 build is centered around increasing the maximum damage range and ADS speed. Some of the attachments are subject to the player’s own preference and may change with upcoming balance updates.


Weapon classes in Modern Warfare 2

There are 10 weapon classes in Modern Warfare 2 that categorize and contain all the guns in the game’s arsenal. A variety of options are currently not available, but through careful attachment selection and the use of the new in-depth weaponry-configuration system, players can tweak a basic gun to become highly lethal.

Here is a list of all the weapon classes:

  • Assault Rifles
  • Battle Rifles
  • Sub-Machine Guns
  • Shotguns
  • Light Machine Guns
  • Markman Rifles
  • Sniper Rifles
  • Pistols
  • Launchers
  • Melee

The Shotgun class carries some of the most ridiculously overpowered weapons and is supposed to be used primarily in close-range gunfights. The Lockwood 300 is a true gem in this category, considering its absurd damage output at close range as well as when at medium distance from the target.
