What is the Quartermaster Suppressor?

The Quartermaster Suppressor is a muzzle that lowers your recoil while keeping shots unheard in long-range firefights. Given its strategic advantage, it’s not wonder it entered the meta so quickly.

Fans are even drawing comparisons to the old “JAK BFB Muzzle” in MW3 due to its big horizontal, vertical and gun kick recoil reduction.

While it doesn’t come close to the JAK’s 60% reduction (pre-nerf), the Quartermaster offers a tamer alternative that also silences your shots.
