The Kar98k is one of the iconic weapons in the Call of Duty series, and it has finally been added to Modern Warfare 3 as a marksman rifle in the season 4 update.
With a few adjustments and the right attachments, this returning classic can be made into a one-shot beast.
In this ONE Esports guide, we share the best Kar98k loadout you can use in Modern Warfare 3.
One-shot your enemies with this best Kar98k loadout in MW3
The Kar98k excels in long distance combat, so this loadout mainly focuses on improving its damage and range.
To increase the damage, the 7.92x57mm Armor Piercing Rounds are the best ammunition attachment.
The ZLR Talon 5 is our muzzle of choice for this as it increases range, and improves firing aim stability as well as recoil control. Additionally, it makes you undetectable by radars when firing.
Equip the Canvas Barrel Wrap to massively enhance improve accuracy and recoil control, while also elevating your flinch resistance.
For boosted mobility and handling, go with the DR-6 Handstop, as it vastly improves aim down sight and movement speed.
Lastly, we have tested many options for the optic, but the one that stood out was the KR Mortis Precision 2.5x. This provides smooth magnification to take out long-distance targets easily with one shot.
