Summary

The best Sidewinder class in Modern Warfare 3

The best Sidewinder accessories

• Mouth : Boron-490
• Canon: Tempus Predator Sniper Cannon
• Cannon accessory: Bruen Heavy Support Handle
• Telescope : MK.3 reflector
• Rear handle: RB Borealis handle

The Sidewinder seriously lacks the precision to stand out against its competitors. This is why this class aims to drastically increase precision, even if it means losing mobility.

The Bore-490 Cannon, the Bruen Heavy Support Grip and the RB Borealis Grip all have the same goal of making the Sidewinder more precise and stable
The Tempus Predator Precision Cannon will improve bullet velocity, to increase the effectiveness of the combat rifle at medium and long range.

Finally, the Reflector MK.3 is an effective and very popular scope, but you can choose another option according to your preferences.

The best features and equipment with the Sidewinder

• Vest : Overarming Vest
• Gloves : Sniper Gloves
• Boots : Cover shoes
• Equipment : Anti-detection camouflage
• Tactics: Flash Grenade
• Deadly : Semtex

Since this Sidewinder class is not very mobile, we recommend the Overarming Vest, in order to at least be able to reload during the sprint.

Sniper gloves fit perfectly into this objective of maximizing the precision of the rifle.

Cover Shoes and Anti-Detection Camouflage will help you move more discreetly around the map, eliminating your footsteps and making you invisible to radars.

Finally, we recommend the duo of Genade flash and Semtex explosives, whose effectiveness and versatility has already proven itself.
