There are many skills that all good Call Of Duty: Warzone Mobile players share. Good gunplay, map awareness, and fluid movement between cover are all valuable skills, as is building the muscle memory for automatically switching to a sidearm in close-quarters combat, rather than wasting time on target due to reloading a primary weapon. Automatically pulling a pistol to finish off an enemy if the player's main weapon magazine goes dry, needs to become second nature.
Best SMGs In Call of Duty: Warzone Mobile, Ranked
COD: Warzone Mobile offers a wide variety of submachine guns for players to choose from.
There isn’t an awful lot of variation between pistols in Warzone Mobile, with a couple of exceptions. One thing to keep in mind though, is that the desktop and the mobile versions of Warzone uses crossplay to keep a player's progression, unlocks, and inventory in sync. This list will cover the best of the standard sidearms in the game.
7 X12
A Reliable Modern Composite Handgun
Recommended weapon mods:
- FT Steel Fire
- 1MW Pistol Laser
- XRK Lighting Fire
- 33 Round Mag
- Akimbo X12
The X12 is a basic, lightweight, and reliable 9MM pistol. It seems to have been modeled on the Glock 17 or similar. The lightweight construction means it has great mobility and handling. And with a 17-round magazine and 34-rounds in reserve, it has plenty of potential DPS.
However, the X12 suffers from poor range and damage and only mediocre accuracy. It is a decent enough sidearm, but there are better options available.
6 .50 GS
Hard Hitting .50 Cal Hand Cannon
Recommended weapon mods:
- SA Brake Barrel
- FJX DIOD-70
- SA Hair Trigger
- 13 Round Mag
- EXF Resistance Grip
Loosely modeled on the Desert Eagle, the .50 GS is a high-damage sidearm chambered in .50 caliber. And just like its real-life counterpart, it has a magazine size of only 7-rounds. Some revolvers carry more than this. The player only has 14 rounds in reserve as well, so they need to be used wisely.
Best Assault Rifles In Call Of Duty: Warzone Mobile, Ranked
Players who prefer to wield assault rifles in Call of Duty: Warzone Mobile should snag the following examples at the earliest opportunity.
However, few pistols perform better in the role of a sidearm used to finish off an enemy that is nearly dead without needing to reload a primary weapon. In most cases, one shot on target should be enough to get the job done.
5 Basilisk
Powerful .500 Revolver
Recommended weapon mods:
- 10.5" FTAC Arrow
- REVO-LSD 7MW
- Bryson HTA
- .500 Snakeshot
- Akimbo Basilisk
The basilisk resembles the Colt Python in more than just the looks department. This is one hard-hitting revolver. And with an 8” barrel, an accurate one as well. The low rate of fire, and the 5-round chamber load should not be much of a problem, due to the high damage. Having 20 rounds as reloads is quite nice as well.
Poor mobility and handling let the Basilisk down, though; it is the worst of all sidearms in Call Of Duty: Warzone Mobile in this regard. But when used selectively and intelligently, it can be devastating.
4 FTAC Siege
A Machine Pistol, Not A Sidearm
Recommended weapon mods:
- Streetsweeper 9MM
- Cronen Mini Red Dot
- Siege Wire Stock
- 72 Round Drum
- SUR-160
This 9mm machine pistol is undoubtedly based on the TEC-9. But unlike its real-world inspiration, it is actually a useful weapon. Where the FTAC Siege really shines, is being used as a backup weapon by a sniper or a player who uses some other long-range weapon. With the addition of the wire stock and drum magazine, it becomes a pocket-sized SMG.
Best Sniper Rifles in Call of Duty: Warzone Mobile, Ranked
The following sniper rifles make a big impact on the small screen in Call of Duty: Warzone Mobile.
But of course, there has to be a downside, and there are many with the FTAC Siege. It has an insane rate of fire but poor accuracy and recoil control. Unfortunately, this little weapon screams out to be used in a run-and-gun style. Don’t do this, as the only thing the FTAC Siege will hit when unloading on full-auto is the bottom of the magazine in seconds. Stick to burst fire.
3 GS Magna
An Upgrade To The .50 GS
Recommended weapon mods:
- FTAC Fifty Comp
- SA Tyrant Fifty
- BRUEN WARRIOR GRIP
- 13 Round Mag
- EXF Resistance Grip
The GS Magna is an upgrade over its sibling, the .50 GS, in every way from a usefulness point of view, but they do differ quite a lot on paper. The GS Magna does less damage but has a higher rate of fire. It is also much more accurate. With the same 7-round magazine with 14 in reserve, the higher rate of fire isn’t an obvious bonus.
This is one accurate sidearm, though. It is not unknown for Call Of Duty: Warzone Mobile players to score headshots with this pistol out to medium range.
2 P890
The Assassin’s Pistol
Recommended weapon mods:
- Matuzek Venom
- 1MW Pistol Laser
- Bruen Express
- 12 Round Mag
- Akimbo P890
The P890 is chambered for .45 subsonic rounds. When equipped with a silencer, the P890 becomes almost silent. This is the perfect partner for the Lachmann Shroud SMG. For players who enjoy stealth gameplay, this is the goto loadout.
Best Shotguns In Call of Duty: Warzone Mobile, Ranked
There are several shotguns available for players to use in Call of Duty: Warzone Mobile, but these are the best ones for players to choose.
The P890 doesn’t have high single-shot damage, but considering it is supposed to be used at almost point-blank range, this shouldn’t be a problem. The 8-round magazine is a little disappointing, but this is a .45 semi-auto, so it makes sense. 14 rounds are available in reserve.
1 X13 Auto
The Handgun John Wick Would Choose
Recommended weapon mods:
- SA GF90 Flash Hider
- Impact Point
- FJX DIOD-70
- 50 Round Drum
- FTAC OL-Z Grip
Choosing the best sidearm in Call Of Duty: Warzone Mobile is not a simple task. But in the end, the simple consideration should be utility, as this is only a backup weapon. And with this in mind, the X13 Auto is a clear winner. Mostly because this is the only standard-format handgun in Warzome that has a full-auto fire mode setting.
With a 17-round magazine, and 34-rounds in reserve, this sidearm can be used as a mini SMG in a pinch, especially with the right weapon mod setup.
