Best RUS-79U Hip Shooting Equipment

Taking the RUS-79U as an example, here are the best accessories for hip shooting in CoD: Mobile:

• Muzzle: MIP Light Flash Guard
• Barrel: OWC sniper
• Advantage : Hip cold sore
• Laser: MIP laser 5mW
• Ammunition: Extended mag 50 rounds

For this hip-fire load, we opted for the MIP Light Flash Guard as it reduces the spread of fireballs to the hip by 7.8%. Then the OWC sniper the gun allows for increased range and recoil control, which is vital to staying on target.

The benefit increases the accuracy of hip jumps and slides, allowing you to stay mobile and precise. Next, the laser increases hip shot accuracy by 17% and reduces shot sprint delay by 25%.

And finally, the Extended mag 50 rounds gives you a lot more shots per magazine, and you don’t have to worry about ADS speed delay.

CoD: tips and tricks for mobile hip-fire

Now that you’ve selected the hip shot and best loadout, there are things you can do to improve your chances of knocking out hip shots.

Playing on small cards

The first is to only play on small maps such as Shipment or Shoot House, as much of the combat will be at close range, where the hip shot shines.

Or, if you’re on a larger map, stay inside and only try to fight up close.

Stay mobile

The other thing you should do to improve your chances of shooting from the hip is to shoot and stay mobile. If you stand still, it will be extremely easy for enemies to hit you. But, if you strafe side-to-side as you fire, when they have trouble keeping up with you, you’ll stay perfectly precise with hip fire.
