Rapid Kills in Modern Warfare 3 means that a player must get at least 2 kills in quick succession. In other words, after eliminating an enemy, the player needs to get the next kill without reloading. Usually, in a match, when you get a Rapid Kill by eliminating at least two enemies, players get notified of a Double Kill. Hence to put it simply, a Rapid Kill in MW3 simply involves players getting at least a Double Kill.

While they don't usually mean much, some challenges in the game require players to get Rapid Kills to unlock certain items or camos and this is especially true for MW3 Zombies.

Hence, in this guide, we'll take a closer look at how you can easily get Rapid Kills in Modern Warfare 3.
