The Winchester

It is a great close range gun with 1shot capabilities however it fails miserably long range. In fact from A site to Long A barricades on Blackwidow it can't even reach the wall while the thompson and even uzi can reach that far to do minimal damage.

I think they need to overhaul it some so it at least does damage long range seeing as it is a rifle and not an SMG.


Any thoughts?

  • naw, it's a novelty gun that doesn't need to be beefed up beyond it's current realistic stats. still, i love the chicago typewriter and it's clickity-clack-BANG ownage
  • however, when you look at the deagle camo, ana adv, and steyr camo. They all have boosted stats for being the best crate gun. When you get the best as they label the winchester you are infact getting a quite terrible gun in the game. The thompson is great, in fact its a friggin awesome gun that is labeled second best to the winchester. Just pointing out that the crate guns have some improvement over normal guns while the winchester is just terrible unless you play like its a shotty (which the shotties fire faster and do more damage at mid or long range). Even the thompson is like a boosted smg with amazing accuracy and decent damage.
  • I've just won...I wasn't able to shoot anything LOL, if u miss u are dead...
  • The gun has absolutely 0 long range. It doesn't even reach half the distance of spawn to spawn in widow.
  • Yeah, when i won my winchester today (9 crates! W00!) I thought it would be epic at long range, but then i went to monaco to try it out.... *sigh* Its good on train though, got quite a few kills there.
  • Well the main point is, if we want a novelty gun, make it Bonus Points or for Coupons. Don't give us a watered down gun that barely even works close range. I'm not sure if any of you have gone hunting with a Winchester, but it definitely has some range to it.
  • its just a thing to keep u happy if u dont win thompson

    You can always get stuff you don't like in crates. I don't like the famas, k1a or sg552, but they are so common in crates. The thompson is just a fun gun as well.
    If you don't want fun guns, don't buy the crate.
  • If you hit their head from long range, they'll look up and say "i think it's raining." thats when you kill them.
  • Um well im kinda pi.ssed off... REALLY BAD! ive made 9 accounts thinking ok itll probly take me 2 accounts to get it (around 6 hours of game play) to get the random Winchester crate. but infact.... on every account Seargant rank you can purchase a little over 50 crates sooo do the math 9x50=450 crates. NOT A SINGLE DAM PERMANANT WEAPON! im not one to get angry or rage over a game but im kinda good at this game so i get kicked 3/4 matches i play.. annoying enough but when u need to rank up and keep getting kicked its kinda of really annoying so what im saying is can u please make it ZP buyable cause if u do i will buy ZP cause you clearly cant win it in a crate because so far theres a 0/450 chance of getting it....
  • i think winchester sucks --.. not offending.. it is like a m700 less damage without scope.. and bad firing rate.

    it's supposed to suck compared to modern guns lol. i guess it shows how firearms have evolved over the last 100+ years
  • well well well... i know the winchester is really a tough gun to handle...
    i do agree with u guys when you say that this gun shouldn't be the best1 in the crate as it says. IMO the thompson would be the gun which gotta be recognized as the best1.
    BTW that crate is awesome, it has good weapons.
  • .....

    ok i really dont understand....alot of u do not like the Winchester well i do, ive used it after i kill some one with it, if u are a good sniper the winchester is not too hard to use. but frankly im ****ed off at how hard it is to obtain in crates. i made two accounts for crates cause i figured it was rare but not as rare as it actually is. what i dont understand is how most of you win the winchester inbetween 1-100 crates are you just very very very very very lucky? cause i have now made 10 accounts over the passed 7 days and you can purchase 50 crates per one account at Seargant. so 10x50=500 crates. like ffs right? i have not won anthing permanent.... i was gonna get ZP on what ever account i won it on but i cant even win it! my friend won his on two accounts one in 12 crates and the other in 15. Am i doing something wrong or?
  • First, let's get some facts straight. The Winchester does in fact suck. It's probably the worst gun in the game. Mediocre accuracy, fires slower than the AWM, almost no damage at long range. It doesn't necessarily kill in one hit at close range either, which means unless you get the headshot, you're probably screwed. That said, I FREAKING LOVE THIS THING! Something about it makes it worth every point my KDR drops from using it. It's great fun, just don't take it seriously.

    ^ this BUT ,.. at least make it as powerfull as the worst handun -_-
    i would like to see it keep its power over range at least then it would be fine,.. but for it to be the only gun that has a drop off point is annoying
  • I tottaly love it, too bad i won the tommy instead <_<
  • It is a fun gun to fool around with. I love ninjaing people in TDM's with it.
    Sure you need to be very close to kill someone. And even then it's likely that it does not kill on 1 hit. It is slow. Etc. Still a fun gun.

    I used to love fooling around with a uzi. Now Wincheter is my favorite toy.
