Hey everyone, this time I decided to rank every gun in Black Ops 2 from the worst to the best. I have 1,800 hours in Steam and 600 hours on PS3 in the game, and I started thinking what my top list would look like. Remember that this list is based on my experience and opinions and I do not claim the following list to be universally valid. Also, the majority of these opinions come from PC version of Black Ops 2, which has some glitches regarding the burst weapons. I'll talk about them once I get to them - let's start! STILL UNFINISHED!


41. SWAT-556

I feel really bad for putting this rifle to the last spot, but unfortunately the burst rifles in Black Ops 2 PC have been scripted poorly. I am a huge fan of burst weapons, and this gun is very good on consoles. Very high damage per burst and great accuracy - but sadly, subject to a glitch which makes it very inconsistent to use.

40. M8A1

Same story as with the SWAT - very good and accurate burst weapon, but very inconsistent to use and glitched due to the burst fire nature. I remember throwing in the Stock and Reflex on PS3 and shredding everyone. 

39. Chicom CQB

And for the third time, the same saga continues with the burst weapons. The Chicom however is able to shoot a lot faster than the aforementioned guns, but it's still a bit inconsistent weapon to use. However, it's surprisingly effective with the Rapid Fire, and it's probably the only worthy SMG to use with the said attachment in BO2, due to the strong penalties it has. 

38. B23R 

Oh boy, the B23R. A dream of the Ballista quickscoper, insane rate of fire and one-burst up close - but on PC, it's too inconsistent. However, it's at the best spot for burst weapons simply for its' effectiveness when using it with Dual Wield. On PS3 however, probably the best pistol to use in close ranges.

37. M27

The first weapon which I rank for its' effectiveness rather than its' subjectivity for glitches - the M27 is dead accurate, the ACR of Black Ops 2 but there is something I do not like about this gun. Objectively it is a great mid-to-long range gun, but I have no feel factor for it myself. It is also very dangerous to use in close ranges, as almost any other assault rifle is more effective up close, with the expection of burst rifles.

36. Vector K10

The Vector was the first gold SMG I got in PS3, but memories have since then grown sweeter with time. Basically, it's an inferior MP7 with better accuracy, and though a decent enough gun for most situations, not my favourite SMG. 

35. RPG

The first secondary in the list, the RPG really lacks the purpose due to the massive amount of Flack Jacket usage. Also, given how the explosives have been nerfed in Black Ops 2, it is not a worthy secondary to use in most circumstances. However, if you manage to find 2-3 enemies in a group without Flack Jackets, it's ultimately fun weapon to use.

34. Five-Seven

The trusty backup from Modern Warfare 3 made a comeback in Black Ops 2 - yet it is still pretty much an underpowered weapon. It does have a good accuracy and high firecap, but the damage and range are severely lacking. It is still the best pistol to use in medium ranges, at least until you unlock the mighty KAP-40. Up close, it is inferior to the TAC-45 and Executioner.

33. QBB LSW

The first relatively low-ranked weapon on the list which I really like using - the QBB has the highest fire rate of all the LMG's and a very short time to kill at close to medium ranges. I like this gun with FMJ and Stock, it's funny to mow down close range attackers with ease.

32. MP7
