3. M60
Of the three different LMGs that Black Ops Cold, there is sadly an outstanding candidate for the weakest weapon in the game – the M60.

Its fire rate is relatively slow compared to almost anything and its recoil is bouncier than a trampoline. It may benefit from AI content such as the campaign or Zombies, but players put themselves at a disadvantage if they use the M60 in competitive multiplayer.
2. RPD
Whereas the RPD manages to make its recoil far more manageable and adds an extra buffer in that its damage-per-second is phenomenal.

Its accuracy can still skew slightly even with some attachments added on for good measure, but overall, the RPD is a solid killing-machine.
1. Stoner 63
We know this is supposed to be a list ranking the best LMGs in the game, but the Stoner 63 could conceivably be mistaken for a laser.
You slap the right attachments on it and it’s an incredible weapon to use. It may have a bit less firepower than the RPD, but that’s because it makes up for it with improved ADS and supreme accuracy. The Stoner 63 is the kind of weapon that can be used for all occasions.
That completes our list. These are the best LMGs ranked in Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War. Be sure to check out the best guns in Cold War and the best guns in Warzone too!
