Diving into Season 4 Meta Shifts
Where Weapons Stand Today
Take the FAL: 630 RPM, punches to 124m, loads T6 M61 (682.5 dmg/714 pen) that one-shots T6 armor, netting 31% PvP survival. MPX? 850 RPM – that's 14 bullets a second – 57m range, T4 7N31 (665.52 dmg/566.4 pen) ripping through L5 like paper. Snag an import FAL via code 3fOafNDUYLQszx4 (135K Koens, T4 M80 at 850.5 dmg/441 pen) straight from Gunsmith.
That September 22 tier list (19 submissions) locks in S-Tier for FAL, MPX, SJ16 – even after AK-12 buffs – while AEK's 800 RPM got tuned down.
Red Ammo's Raid Reign – And Why?
T6 M61's 714 pen one-shots T6 armor in 90% of scraps. But with 15-25% nerfs looming? T4 becomes the sweet spot. SJ16 packs T6 .338 AP (94 dmg/64 pen), stretches to 160m, bolt-action at 26 RPM.

Red Ammo Nerf? Let's Break It Down
The Raw Stats on Red
FAL with T6 M61: 682.5 dmg/714 pen. Drop to T4 M80: 850.5/441, still crushes L5 post-nerfs. MPX T4 7N31? 665.52/566.4 shreds L5; T3 AP6.3 (679.68/424.8) as your wallet-friendly pick.
- T1 UN: 924 dmg/168 pen (unarmored fodder).
- T3 BPZ: 871.5 dmg/336 pen (L3-4 melter).
- T4 M80: 850.5 dmg/441 pen (L5 post-nerfs).
- T5 M62: 745.5 dmg/556.5 pen.
- T6 M61: 682.5 dmg/714 pen (T6 one-shots).
Sink 60-70% of your budget into T3+ ammo. Test TTK on legs – T4 holds up fine. (Editor note: I've leg-meta'd my way to top leaderboards this way.)
Past Patches That Shaped It
April 2025 slashed T4-T6 damage 15-25%, vaulting T4 7.62x39 BP (45 pen/59 dmg, 546 Koens) against L5. September 22 list? S-Tier holds steady post-MCX tweaks and 120+ attachments. Eyes on Season 3, September 19 – 3 weapons, 6 items, map glow-ups.
