Call of Duty Warzone features timeless weapons that rise and fall in popularity, but the best LMGs (Light Machine Guns) remain staples for squad suppression and long-range dominance. With 77 primary weapons drawn from Modern Warfare and Black Ops Cold War, most are viable, but a select few outperform the rest based on extensive testing in high-stakes matches.
Top 5 Best LMGs in COD Warzone:
5. M60
4. RPD
3. Stoner 63
2. PKM
1. FiNN
A light machine gun is designed for single-operator use as infantry support, making LMGs ideal for battle royale with their high ammo capacity and sustained fire. Drawing from thousands of hours grinding Warzone metas, we've ranked the top 5 LMGs to help you excel on Verdansk or Caldera.

For reference, here's a list of key Warzone weapons:
Warzone offers ARs, SMGs, shotguns, and snipers, but LMGs shine for players who prioritize suppression and mag dumps. Here's our expert ranking based on damage, recoil control, and real-world performance:

The M60 delivers high damage across ranges in Verdansk. Equip Agency Suppressor and a Long Barrel for lethal output. It shreds in skilled hands but demands recoil mastery.

The RPD matches PKM damage with better handling. Add Speed Tape and KGB Skeletal Stock for AR-like agility. Slow ADS and TTK hold it back from top-tier, but it's reliable.

Perfect for mid-to-long auto fire, the Stoner 63 balances high damage, solid RoF, and range. Its fast TTK makes it a meta contender despite LMG mobility drawbacks.

The PKM excels at long range with laser-like control akin to the FiNN. In pro hands, it outguns most weapons thanks to low recoil and consistent damage.

The FiNN LMG-ifies the Grau: pinpoint accuracy melts foes at sniper ranges. Boost RoF with attachments while maintaining range via Monolithic Suppressor and long barrel—our top pick for versatility.
