Below are some of the most effective attachments you can equip on the Riveter shotgun in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 (MW3) Season 2 Reloaded.

Recommended build:

  • Barrel: Pneumatic Integrated Suppressor
  • Optic: Slate Reflector
  • Underbarrel: XRK Edge BW-4 Handstop
  • Ammunition: .410 Gauge Slug
  • Magazine: 30-round Magazine

The Pneumatic Integrated Suppressor is perfect for the Riveter, keeping you off enemy players' radar while providing additional range. The XRK Edge BW-4 Handstop barrel ensures better control and movement speed while carrying the gun.

The .410 Gauge Slug makes this loadout extremely overpowered. With the slugs equipped, the Riveter makes for an incredible auto shotgun, providing damage output equivalent to an assault rifle.

Of course, the 30-round Magazine sweetens the deal and turns the Riveter into a relentless squad demolisher.
