The Lockwood 300 is one of the prime weapons in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2 and Warzone 2.0 after the Season 6 update. We’ve spent most of the Modern Warfare 2 era without a go-to shotgun, but for better or worse, we certainly have one now.
This is one of those rare builds that is so strong that it crosses the gap between MW2 and Warzone. No matter which game you prefer more, slap this thing into your primary slot and watch the bodies stack up as you take over the map.

The focus for the Lockwood 300 is lethality and quickness. We achieve this by starting with the Maelstrom Dual Trigger and the Matuzek 812 Barrel. Adding the Trigger Action completely transforms this gun. A forgettable double-barrel shotgun no more, it’s now a one-tap world-ender with unbelievable range thanks to the Matuzek 812 Barrel.
Hipfire accuracy is a must here, so the Bruen Warrior Grip works in harmony with the Schlager Ulo-66 to keep things in control. Our Heist Stock Mod wraps a pretty little bow on it all, bringing some much-needed speed back into the picture.
The perk package for the Lockwood 300 includes Battle Hardened and Double Time as the base perks, as staying light on your feet is the main goal.
Fast Hands is the bonus perk and High Alert is the ultimate perk because you need to be able to reload fast, and getting a split-second warning that someone is aiming at you makes all the difference in getting to safety.
Warzone players probably want to add on a Throwing Knife for quick eliminations and a Smoke Grenade to cover their tracks, but Multiplayer is far more forgiving, so we’ll leave that open-ended.
Lockwood 300 Modern Warfare 2 & Warzone 2.0 Playstyle
Only one word should be on your mind when using this weapon: aggression. This gun wins every single up-close gunfight in the game right now, so unless someone is going to outshoot you with their own Lockwood 300, you’ll have the advantage in every battle up to 10 meters. It’s perfect for up close Warzone fights, or to lock down the sharp corners of a map like Mercado Las Almas in MW2.
You will need to ADS to maximize your accuracy, but a few games of doing this will train you to understand the intricate timing needed to dip in and out of fights as you reload. This is the type of weapon that should strike fear in the hearts of anyone on the other team. If they’re running towards you, it’s probably too late for them.
That’s all we’ve got on the Lockwood 300. If you’re after some more loadout inspiration, check out our thoughts on the TR-76 Geist Assault Rifle & ISO 9mm SMG and where they might stand in the current weapon meta.
