What to Expect From the New Renetti in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare
The Renetti handgun is one of two new guns which have come to Call of Duty: Modern Warfare in Season 3 so far, alongside the new SKS Marksman Rifle. Both of these guns can be unlocked in the free tiers of the Season 3 Battle Pass, and its the Renetti which players will unlock first, at Tier 15. While small, this 9mm sidearm boasts some impressive gunsmithing options which make it incredibly versatile.
Modern Warfare Season 3 Guns: The Renetti Pistol
“The Renetti blends together some of the best qualities of the pistols within the handgun class,” writes Infinity Ward; “resulting in a weapon that can fit a variety of combat scenarios despite it being a secondary weapon”. Unmodified, a standard Renetti can generally take down an unarmoured player with three shots to the body – two shots if you can get a headshot. It performs well at range, with four body shots (or two headshots) generally being enough for a kill. With a 15- or 27-round magazine, you’ll have plenty of ammo, but these stats alone don’t really help the Renetti stand out.
What really makes the Renetti unique is its Mk3 Burst Mod attachment. To get this, you’ll need to unlock the Guard One weapon blueprint at Tier 85 of the Battle Pass. With this mod, the Renetti becomes a three-round burst handgun; the first to ever feature in Modern Warfare. The Burst Mod allows you to take down players in a single burst, making it an extremely powerful handgun option.
The other advantage of the Renetti is its sheer versatility; this handgun boasts a very wide assortment of mods and gunsmithing options. As a result, you can really tailor your Renetti to fit any sort of playstyle. It can be a powerful short-range pistol to pair with a Riot Shield, for instance, but can just as easily be a silent and highly-accurate sniping sidearm. Of course, you could also double up with the Akimbo perk and dual-wield Renettis with the Burst Mod attachment; a particularly potent combination!
