MW3 (2011) L118A
How do you unlock the L118A?
The L118A is available once Create-a-Class opens at Level 4 in Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 (2011). It is a default five-round bolt-action sniper. Its forced cycle creates a deliberate shoot-reacquire rhythm, so first-shot placement matters more than follow-up speed. Its camo track finishes at Gold (Reach Weapon Level 31 with this sniper rifle).
