How to unlock Mac 10 in Call of Duty: Black Ops Cold War

The Mac-10 was added to Call Of Duty: Black Ops Cold War in Season 1 and gamers have been waiting patiently to get their hands on it.

The Groza and the Mac-10 were two of the brand new weapons introduced in Call Of Duty: Black Ops Cold War. Both these weapons are extremely sought-after because of their rapid fire-rate and mobility.

The Mac-10 is a Submachine gun that is small, but packs a punch. Activision mentioned in their official blog that it is designed as the fastest-firing SMG in the first set of weapons. On top of that, if used correctly, the Mac-10 offers a considerable range, even though it is an SMG.

Popular content creators like Nick "Nickmercs" Kolcheff and Aydan Conrad mentioned how the weapon is overpowered. Some of them suggested that Activision might have to nerf the weapon in the future simply because of its effectiveness.

Nickmercs exclaimed:

"Trust me, this thing is broken, it's overpowered, it's unbelievable and I love it - the Mac-Daddy-10!"

For those who haven't purchased the Battle Pass, fret not, as all the weapons are available to acquire for free by completing challenges.

The Groza is unlockable at Tier 31 in the Battle Pass, and gamers can try out some crazy loadout variations with that too.

The Season 1 Battle Pass has brought forth a killing machine that shreds opponents at 1111 RPM. With fully automatic base magazine capacity of 32 rounds, the Mac-10 stands as the best weapon in its class.
