Added in Season 6, the JAK Voltstorm is an Aftermarket Part that converts the Stormender into an electric shotgun. It will always one-shot enemies and can even chain between them to secure multiple kills, both in mutliplayer and battle royale.

However, you will need to unlock it first to use it on your loadouts. Here’s how to get the JAK Voltstorm as fast as possible and our analysis of where it falls in the meta.

How good is the JAK Voltstorm?

The JAK Voltstorm shocking several enemies at once in Modern Warfare 3.

The JAK Voltstorm isn’t meta by any means, but it can be a surprisingly effective weapon if you use it in the right situation. You just have to respect that it has low range (8 meters) and is only viable on small multiplayer maps like Shipment, Das Haus, and Stash House.

In the right lobby, this electric shotgun can dominate up close, as its shocks chain between enemies, potentially killing several players all at once. This is especially strong if the other team is clustered together on these small maps, which happens pretty frequently.

Surprisingly, it’s pretty good in Warzone too, as it can one shot out to 7.3 meters and even down multiple enemies at once. This makes it useful for countering squads trying to rush you and holding down a position. However, its long charge time makes it useless for playing aggressively, so this is strictly a defensive weapon.

The addition of the JAK Voltstorm marks the end of Modern Warfare 3’s life cycle, with Black Ops 6 soon to take its place. To learn more about Treyarch’s upcoming entry, check out the confirmed maps, when Season 1 begins, and the future of Aftermarket Parts.
