Why use the Fennec 45 in MW3?

Why use the Fennec 45 in MW3?

As mentioned, the Fennec 45 isn’t a bad choice, if you can boost the stats. We have opted for a build that caters to improving hipfire accuracy, handling speeds and range so that you can use it effectively against enemies around corners, emitting a spray of bullets before they even know what’s happened.

First and foremost, you should pick theZLR 16.5" Ignition Barrel, which is a substantially long barrel. Not only does it improve the gun’s effective range, but it also compresses the recoil and improves hipfire accuracy.

With this renewed focus on hipfire effectiveness, we’ve opted for theAgent Grip, which also improves the gun’s aiming stability. Combined, these attachments add weight to the SMG, which is why we’ve also added theAgile Assault-7 Stockto give us added ADS speed, sprint speed, and sprint-to-fire speed. This can offset the previously added weight to stay competitive at close ranges.

The Fennec 45 goes through its magazine so quickly, we’ve found it well worth the added weight to attach the extendedFennec Mag 45, giving you some extra time before you need to reload, leaving yourself open to enemy fire. Lastly, we’ve added theCronen Mini ProOptic - though you can of course choose any Optic you wish for your own Fennec 45 loadout.

FJX Imperium.

With any close-range weapon like the Fennec 45, it’s always a worthwhile idea to have a long-ranged weapon equipped. We strongly recommend theFJX Imperium, which is currently one of thebest sniper rifles in Modern Warfare 3, capable of one-shot kills with high damage and incredibly smooth recoil and accuracy. As sniper rifles go, it’s one of the most streamlined experiences on offer at the moment.

Overkill Vest, Ordnance Gloves, Frag Grenade, Battle Rage, Stalker Boots, EOD Padding.

As the optimal loadout for the Fennec 45 also includes an additional long-range weapon, we recommend using theOverkill Vestwhich allows you to equip two primary weapons. TheVestalso allows reloading whilst sprinting and increased weapon swap speed, which is essentially the Fast Hands and Overkill perks from MW2 combined.

Because the Vest is so generous with perks that cannot stack, it does somewhat limit your choice ofGloves. For this reason, we recommend theOrdnance Gloveswhich increase the throwing range of equipment and allow you to reset the fuse on any thrown-back grenades. Because of this, we recommend pairing the Gloves with a good old fashionedFrag Grenade. You will be able to throw them over longer distances, making the enemy engage and move closer within your range, where you can finish them off with the Fennec 45.

As allLethalsneed aTacticalto go with it, we’ve chosen theBattle Rageperk which goes hand in hand with any close combat build. It effectively gives you an adrenaline rush that stimulates health regeneration, refreshes Tactical Sprint and helps you resist enemy Tactical Equipment. This is great in a pinch when you’re getting overwhelmed and need to get to cover safely.

Lastly, for yourbootof choice, we’ve settled on theStalker Bootsto further increase strafe and ADS movement speed. Combined with theEOD Paddingto reduce damage from non-killstreak explosives and fire, you have yourself a solid Fennec 45 build.
