Here’s the best Bryson 890 loadout in Modern Warfare 3
Looking for the best Bryson 890 loadout in Modern Warfare 3?Although the Bryson 890 may not be the best shotgun inCall Of Duty: Modern Warfare 3, it is highly customisable and can be elevated above many other shotgun choices with the right attachments.
Along with providing you with the best Bryson 890 loadout in Modern Warfare 3, we’ll also go through the optimal equipment and gear choices to make sure you have the right build to truly excel with the Bryson 890.
Why use the Bryson 890 in MW3?
Like other shotguns in Modern Warfare 3, the Bryson 890 is best used in close combat situations. We’ve chosen a loadout to slightly advance the range as well as the hipfire accuracy. This means the Bryson 890 will be able to take care of enemies close by with accurate hipfire whilst also eliminating those at the fringes of your range.
Both theBryson Improved Chokeand21.5" Bryson TacfireBarrel have been chosen in this loadout to improve the Bryson 890’s pellet spread and increase its range. Even if the shotgun is forced to move into mid-range territory, with these mods, you may be able to land a quick kill before the enemy has time to finish you off.
Finally, theSawed Off Modwill improve the Bryson 890’s handling and mobility, ADS, and sprint-to-fire speeds as well as an additional boost to hipfire recoil control. The only drawback is a slight penalty to aiming stability and recoil control, although we think this is a worthy trade as these values aren’t as critical for a shotgun like the Bryson 890.
M4, Kastov 762, STB 556.
Although we’ve optimised the Bryson 890 to perform beyond its usual range, you’ll most likely still need something medium to long range in your loadout. We recommend a good assault rifle like theM4,Kastov 762,or theSTB 556. Each of these ARs are iconic within the franchise and are easily some of thebest assault rifles in Modern Warfare 3.
Overkill Vest, Ordnance Gloves, Running Sneakers, EOD Padding, Battle Rage, Frag Grenade.
If you’re after a punchy close-combat build for the Bryson 890, we recommend choosing theOverkill Vestwhich will allow you to equip a second primary weapon, something that can cater to long-range distances and cover all ground. ThisVestadditionally provides the Fast Hands perk - increasing weapon swap speed and the ability to reload whilst sprinting, highly important as you zip in and out of combat.
ForGloves, you cannot choose either the Quick-Grip or Commando Gloves whilst wearing the Infantry Vest and as ADS is of less importance, we’ve opted for theOrdnance Gloves. These will allow you to throw equipment further and reset the fuse timer on any thrown-back grenades, making yourLethalandTacticaloptions much more useful. For your Boot of choice, we suggest theRunning Sneakerswhich will essentially increase Tactical Sprint duration and reduce refresh time, a useful speed boost to help those up-close and tense situations.
When selectingGear, we suggest something that will make you more spongy to oncoming assault from your close combat vantage point. In this regard, theEOD Paddingis always a valid choice as it reduces damage from non-killstreak explosives and fire.
With your Tactical and Lethal choice being of more importance due to the Gloves, we suggest theBattle RageandFrag Grenadeoptions. Battle Rage will give you a boost to health regeneration, resistance to enemy Tactical equipment and your Tactical Sprint will constantly refresh when it is activated, making you a livewire in close quarters. Additionally, the Frag Grenade is a staple in any Call of Duty game and is a useful tool for operating around tight corners and buying yourself some time in close combat if you need to reload.
