This is our favourite pick of the KN-44 gunsmith loadout for Season 10 in COD Mobile. The newly launched KN-44 is the most popular one used last season but has since dropped in popularity in the current season. While making this loadout, we focused on reducing the lateral-recoil as much as we can since this gun suffers from inaccurate bullet-spray patterns.
The KN-44 is known for its extremely high damage, very fast fire rate, and its surprisingly good accuracy. However, the gun has a horizontal recoil structure like the AK117 in some regards. The AR is considered to be the best heavy-shot rifle in the game and mainly relies on firing from close to medium ranges.
KN-44 – Overview and Tips
The gunsmith loadout on the KN-44 has a very large focus on reducing the inconsistency in the horizontal recoil pattern which makes the gun quite difficult to pre-aim or peek with. It does a mind-boggling 42 damage per hit at a very high fire rate; making it very lethal at close ranges. Our loadout has a heavy emphasis on reducing the low mobility and inaccurate shooting patterns associated with using this gun.
The gun could have been unlocked in the Heavy-Shot event, where 100 points were needed through playing different matches crediting the player with several attachments for it as well.
This loadout is mainly meant for close-range aggro gameplay styles as it focuses on the reduction of hipfire and ADS bullet spread. This gun does not fare well in longer-ranged combat but is arguably the best AR to use in smaller, more tight maps.

KN-44 Gunsmith Loadout / Attachments
We now take a look at our favorite KN-44 gunsmith loadout for this season. This loadout has been tested by us at BRGeeks and we assure you that you will have no troubles destroying players in 1 on 1 confrontations against most classes and loadouts.
Muzzle: RTC Light Muzzle Brake
The RTC Light Muzzle Brake helps by fixing some of the recoil-control issues this gun suffers from by increasing both the Accuracy and Control stat. It does however reduce the gun’s mobility quite a bit which will be counter-acted by our Laser sight. The addition to accuracy makes this gun more reliable at medium ranges.
Stock: MIP Strike Stock
The MIP Stock is mainly used here for its lateral recoil stability. Another bonus this stock provides is the reduction in flinching which makes us have further stability when ADS’ing with this particular AR. It does reduce ADS Movement Speed though, which is not particularly harmful as our gameplay style doesn’t revolve around moving when aiming.
Rear Grip: Stippled Grip Tape
We use the Grip Tape over here so that we can improve our ADS Speed and try reducing the amount of movement speed loss we get while moving. This does reduce our ADS Bullet Spread Accuracy though but we feel that the gun is extremely immobile without this attachment.
Laser: OWC Laser – Tactical
The OWC Laser – Tactical is used for an increase in overall accuracy and movement speed in ADS’ing. Its only drawback is the fact that our location is exposed at all times due to the visible laser. However, with a close-range aggro playstyle, this is not much of an issue as this loadout assures winning most 1 on 1 confrontation anyways.
Extended Mag / Barrel
If the recoil of the gun is under control and the bullet-spray pattern feels consistent, then we suggest going for an Extended Mag for an extra kick in firepower as this will help shred players at closer ranges with relative ease.
However, if the gun is still hard to aim with, then a suitable alternative is the OWC Marksman for a greater increase in overall stability as it reduces the lateral horizontal recoil even further.
Best KN-44 Loadout – Summary
In conclusion, this loadout is the best when it comes to close-ranged combat. It allows you to maintain a very aggressive playstyle especially if you opt for the extended mag.
Pros:
- Extremely high firepower
- Can win almost every engagement in close-quarters
- Ability to engage multiple targets at once.
Cons:
- Extremely inaccurate at longer ranges.
- Hard to control spray-pattern makes it somewhat unreliable without proper practice.
