wa2000

Picture
The WA2000 is a sniper rifle that appears in Call of Duty: Black Ops. It is unlocked at level 10.

The WA2000 has the lowest recoil of all sniper rifles in Call of Duty: Black Ops. Like the Dragunov, only shots to the head or chest will kill in one shot. However in hardcore game modes, it will always be 1 hit kill. It has a slightly faster centerspeed than the Dragunov, allowing for quicker, more accurate follow up shots. Notably, the stock scope (and medium variable) zooms to only 3.25x, compared to 4.30x for all other sniper rifles. Also unique amongst sniper rifles in Black Ops, the ADS time for the WA2000 equipped with the ACOG Scope is .30 seconds vs. .35 seconds for all other sniper rifles. Combined with the low recoil, the fast ADS time with the ACOG Scope makes the WA2000 viable at medium range.

Overall, the low recoil and fast centerspeed characteristics of the WA2000 result in a relatively easy to manage sniper rifle.

Other than the more detailed, lighter wood finish, the WA2000 is largely unchanged from Modern Warfare 2. The rifle in first person view takes up significantly less screen area than in Modern Warfare 2, particularly in the center of the screen.
