The Browning Automatic Rifle, commonly referred to as the BAR, is a renowned weapon that falls within the category of assault rifles. This article provides all the essential statistics and tips for mastering this firearm in the multiplayer mode of Call of Duty: WWII.
With solid precision and a high rate of fire, the BAR is a versatile weapon that offers the perfect compromise for players torn between assault rifles and submachine guns. It can eliminate enemies in three shots within a distance of 19 meters, transitioning to four shots beyond that range. However, it may not be the ideal choice for long distances. This rifle is particularly suited for players who take on flexible roles, able to assist in objectives while managing spawns. Its primary weakness lies in its magazine size—20 bullets can deplete quickly given its rapid fire rate.
