MW3 Season 2 Week 7: The JAK Outlaw-277 Kit - The Ultimate Lever-Action Powerhouse

Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3's second season is in full swing, and Week 7 has just dropped a game-changer so potent it's got the community buzzing. Forget about grinding for the latest meta AR or sniper rifle—the real prize this week is the JAK Outlaw-277 Kit, a conversion kit for the BAS-B that doesn't just tweak the weapon; it transforms it into an absolute monster. Who would have thought that turning a battle rifle into a lever-action could create something that gives the best sniper rifles a run for their money? But before you can start one-tapping enemies across the map, you'll need to unlock it. The task? Complete any five of the week's challenges across Multiplayer, Zombies (MWZ), or Warzone. Sounds simple enough, right? Let's dive into why this kit is worth the effort and how to grab it as fast as possible.

The Week 7 Grand Prize: JAK Outlaw-277 Kit

Completing any five challenges unlocks the JAK Outlaw-277 Kit for the BAS-B. This isn't your average attachment. This kit performs a full metamorphosis, converting the BAS-B into a lever-action rifle. What's the trade-off? You sacrifice some fire rate and ADS speed. But what do you gain? Oh, just a casual 300% increase in damage and a significant boost to bullet velocity. Yes, you read that correctly. This makes its damage profile rival most dedicated sniper rifles. Land a single shot to the upper torso or arms within 18 meters? That's a one-hit elimination. But wait, there's more!

That pesky 11% ADS speed penalty? It can be completely negated by slapping a sawed-off stock on the weapon. Do that, and you've got yourself what is arguably the fastest-aiming sniper-class weapon in the game. How does it stack up against a fan favorite like the Longbow? Let's break it down:

Feature	JAK Outlaw-277 (BAS-B)	Longbow	Verdict
ADS Speed	Faster (with sawed-off stock)	Slower	✅ Outlaw Wins
Effective Range	Greater	Less	✅ Outlaw Wins
Flinch Resistance	Significantly Higher	Lower	✅ Outlaw Wins
Mobility	Slightly Better	Standard	✅ Outlaw Wins
One-Shot Kill Zone	Upper Torso/Arms (≤18m)	Head/Upper Chest	⚖️ Contextual

In short, the Outlaw Kit isn't just good; it's objectively superior to the Longbow in nearly every practical metric. Is this the strongest gun in Modern Warfare 3 right now? Many pro players and content creators are certainly making that argument.

Conquering the Multiplayer Challenges 🎯

Want to unlock the kit by sticking to classic 6v6 action? Here are your missions. Remember, you only need five total from all modes, so mix and match as you please!

• Get 20 clean kills with iron sights on a recommended marksman rifle. (2,500 XP)

• Pro Tip: A 'clean kill' means you secure the elimination without taking any damage. Play defensively on maps with long sightlines.

• Get 20 headshot kills with a recommended handgun. (5,000 XP)

• Time to practice your aim! This is a great challenge for Shipment or other close-quarters maps.

• Get 10 quickscope kills with a sight on a recommended marksman rifle. (5,000 XP)

• 'Quickscope' means getting the kill very shortly after aiming down sights. It's all about timing and centering.

• Get 10 clean kills with a recommended battle rifle in single-fire mode. (5,000 XP)

• Tap-fire is the name of the game. Control your shots for maximum efficiency.

• Get 7 longshot kills with a recommended marksman rifle. (7,500 XP)

• Find a good camping... err, tactical holding position on larger maps.

• Get 15 tac stance kills with recommended marksman rifles. (7,500 XP)

• 🔥 Best Challenge Pick! Equip the DM56 with its Tac-Trigger conversion kit and build it specifically for tac stance (short barrel, laser, etc.). This makes the challenge a breeze on smaller maps.

• Get 3 kills in one magazine, 5 times, with recommended sniper rifles. (10,000 XP)

• Reload management is key. Don't spray and pray; make every shot count.

Surviving the Zombies (MWZ) Challenges 🧟

Prefer to fight the undead hordes? The MWZ challenges offer a great alternative path. Remember, recommended weapons have a flame icon in your Create-A-Class menu.

• Get 10 special zombie kills with a recommended marksman rifle. (2,500 XP)

• Get 250 critical kills with a recommended handgun. (5,000 XP)

• Get 300 kills with a recommended marksman rifle while Deadshot Daiquiri is active. (5,000 XP)

• Get 50 mercenary kills while in semi-auto mode with a recommended battle rifle. (5,000 XP)

• Most MW2 battle rifles have a semi-auto toggle. Use it!

• Get 300 kills with a recommended marksman rifle while Juggernog is active. (7,500 XP)

• Get 200 kills in a Low Threat Zone with a recommended Legendary (orange) weapon. (7,500 XP)

• Get 10 kills without being hit, 20 times, with a recommended sniper. (10,000 XP)

The Ultimate MWZ Strategy: 🧠

Want to knock out multiple challenges at once? Here's the plan:

1. Pack a recommended Marksman Rifle (like the DM56).

2. Pack a recommended Handgun as your secondary.

3. Get that Marksman Rifle upgraded to Legendary (Orange) quality.

4. Buy Deadshot Daiquiri and Juggernog perks.

5. Head to a Low Threat Zone and start farming. You can work on the 300 kills with Deadshot, the 300 kills with Juggernog, the 200 Legendary weapon kills in the Low Threat Zone, and the special/regular kills simultaneously. Efficiency at its finest!

Mastering the Warzone Challenges 🌍

For the battle royale specialists, the challenges are all about map knowledge and persistence. A crucial note: The operator kill challenges must be done on the Urzikstan map!

• Open 50 loot caches. (2,500 XP)

• Just loot everything you see. This will complete itself over a few matches.

• In Urzikstan, get 10 operator kills in the northwest region (Resort, Power, Seaport, Cargo). (5,000 XP)

• In Urzikstan, get 10 operator kills in the southern region (City, Suburbs, Manor). (5,000 XP)

• Complete 15 contracts in Warzone. (5,000 XP)

• In Urzikstan, get 10 operator kills in the eastern region (Military Base or Farms). (7,500 XP)

• In Urzikstan, get 10 operator kills in the central region (Old Town, Low Town). (7,500 XP)

• In Warzone, place in the top ten 5 times or complete a Covert Exfil. (10,000 XP)

Pro-Tips for Warzone Domination:

• For the kill challenges, play Plunder or other respawn-enabled modes. Trying to get 10 kills in a specific region in Battle Royale is much harder when you only have one life. Plunder lets you land directly in the target area and go to town.

• The 'top ten 5 times' challenge is a test of patience and positioning. Play cautiously, rotate early, and avoid unnecessary fights until the final circles.

• A Covert Exfil is a faster, riskier alternative to the top-ten challenge. Can you call in a private helicopter and escape the map without being noticed?

So, what's the best path to unlocking this beast of a weapon? For pure speed, focusing on the Multiplayer tac stance challenge and the MWZ farming strategy is a killer combo. Within a couple of hours, you could be holding the key to dominating any lobby in 2026. The JAK Outlaw-277 Kit isn't just a reward; it's a statement. Will you be the one making it?
