Best COR-45 MW3 loadout: Class setup, attachments, perks
ActivisionMW3 community members are sleeping on pistols, but we are here to enlighten you about the underrated COR-45. From class setup to attachments, and perks, here is everything you need to know.
There is something oddly satisfying about using a pistol in Call of Duty. When a sidearm is powerful enough, you feel like James Bond or Agent 47 whipping around the map and popping heads. The problem is that pistols usually aren’t strong enough to compete with top-tier meta weapons.
It also doesn’t help that MW3 features a whopping 114 weapons at launch. With so many other options out there, a pistol probably ranks near last in a list of most exciting weapons. But that is where you might be wrong.
Even though sidearms don’t necessarily jump off the page as must-use weapons, the COR 45 is absolutely lethal in the right hands and with the right set of attachments equipped.

The core of this loadout is the XRK IP-V2 Conversion Kit as it allows you to equip underbarrel and optic attachments to the weapon, which will help greatly. Using this, you can have the DR-6 Handstop to help with your mobility and weapon handling.
Using the XRK Dynamic Precision Stock gives you better recoil control to make the COR 45 nearly recoilless and able to hit many shots in a row. The FJX DIOD-70 laser helps boost the gun’s ADS, aiming stability, and sprint-to-fire speed.
Finally, the 40 Round Mag offers a lot more shots that can be fired in one clip, meaning that you can hit multiple enemies in one scenario.

If the COR-45 doesn’t check every box for what a sidearm should be. The next best option would most likely be the Renetti as there is a new Aftermarket Part that transforms the pistol into a pocket SMG.
