Can this weapon truly rival the Lockwood 300?

Since Warzone has been in its diverse META for years, even Shotguns have emerged and carved out a place for themselves. The Bryson-890 was a forgotten weapon during Warzone 2, however, we think its time this shotgun got some time in the sun. So here’s the best Bryson-890 loadout for Warzone and MW3.

Best Bryson-890 Attachment

Since Warzone has been in its diverse META for years, even Shotguns have emerged and carved out a place for themselves. The Bryson-890 is an old-generation weapon with a ton of mobility, pump action, and the highest base-damage of all shotguns.

  • Muzzle: Bryson Improved Choke
  • Barrel: 21.5″ Recourse
  • Underbarrel: DR-6 Handstop
  • Ammunition: 12 Gauge Dragon’s Breath
  • Stock: Stockless Pistol Grip

A very important attachment is the Bryson Improved Choke, which increases damage range and reduces pellet spread which can be an incredible consistency boost. The 21.5″ Recourse Barrel further helps our range and bullet velocity. For some mobility improvements, we have the DR-6 Handstop and the Stockless Pistol Grip to drastically enhance our movement speeds, ADS, and sprint-to-fire speeds.

Finally, we have the 12 Gauge Dragon’s Breath ammunition to set the sky ablaze with fire and brimstone.

Best Bryson-890 Perks

The Bryson-890 needs mobility perks to guarantee that anyone entering our range is decimated by our shotgun pellets. However, these are also generic perks for Warzone in its entirety so feel free to swap out the ones that do not resonate with your playstyle.

The best perks are as follows:

  • Perk 1: Double Time
  • Perk 2: Sleight of Hand
  • Perk 3: Tempered
  • Perk 4: High Alert

Double time increases our Tactical Sprint recharge and duration to ensure we can cross open sightlines with speed, so it’s a must-pick. Sleight of Hand is a classic perk that allows us to reload quicker and make sure we aren’t out of the fight for long. In the Perk 3 slot we have Tempered to reduce the number of plates needed to reach full health by 1 and the time to fully plate by 33%.

Finally, we have High Alert as the perfect option to gain information, react to enemy operators faster, and protect your skull from pesky sniper scopes.

Best Bryson-890 Attachments

MW3 multiplayer is a chaotic battleground with enemy combatants diving and sliding across the map we have the perfect conditions for a shotgun like the Bryson-890 to thrive in. With its mobility and high damage, it is poised to take over every match. It can match SMGs like the WSP Swarm and Rival 9 in CQC, just be aware that any range past 10 meters and you’re at a significant disadvantage.

  • Muzzle: Bryson Improved Choke
  • Barrel: 21.5″ Bryson Tacfire
  • Laser: VLK LZR 7MW
  • Guard: DEMO Dropzone Pump
  • Stock: Stockless Pistol Grip

Once again we have the Bryson Improved Choke as the absolute best muzzle to reduce pellet spread and drastically increase consistency and damage. The 21.5″ Bryson Tacfire for an even better pellet spread and a little extra range on top. For mobility, we have a trifecta of the VLK LZR 7MW, DEMO Dropzone Pump, and the Stockless Pistol Grip. Together they improve ADS, sprint-to-fire speeds, movement speed, and sprint speeds for SMG-like mobility.

Best Bryson-890 Perks

For the purpose of perks we treat the Bryson-890 as an SMG, so we equip body armor to facilitate your gameplan.

The best Perks are as follows:

  • Vest: Infantry Vest
  • Gloves: Commando Gloves
  • Boots: Covert Sneakers
  • Gear: EOD Padding

Due to the strength of the Infantry Vest, it is an obvious choice in this fast-paced META, allowing you to recharge Tac Sprint faster and sprint for longer. With Commando Gloves we can sprint through the map and reload at the same time, so once we have run out of ammo we are still on the move. Combat Sneakers, meanwhile, remove the footstep audio (Dead Silence), allowing you to catch enemies off-guard as you full sprint your way into their spawn.

To top it all off, we have EOD padding that will keep you safe from stray frag grenades or the firepower of killstreaks that threaten to end your streak randomly.

And there you have it. That’s the best Bryson-890 loadout in Modern Warfare 3 and Warzone. Be sure to stick with us at Twinfinite as we cover all the best loadouts, guides, news, and updates.
