Not much was made of the FFAR 1 when it was first integrated into Warzone from Black Ops Cold War. Too much attention was given to the DMR, Mac-10, and MP5, for anyone to really take notice of the bullpup assault rifle.
However with some of those previously mentioned weapons rightfully receiving nerfs, the player base has been searching for the next best thing, and some have looked to the FFAR with its high-rate of fire as a "best of both worlds" replacement for their SMGs.

It is something that Nick "NICKMERCS" Kolcheff explored in his latest YouTube video and while he conceded that he is unlikely to pick this over the Mac-10 when it comes to high-stakes competitive action he did settle on a build that "bangs".

- Muzzle: Agency Suppressor
- Barrel: 21.2" Ranger
- Stock: Raider Stock
- Underbarrel: Bruiser Grip
- Ammunition: Salvo 50 Rnd Fast Mag
There are two downsides to the standard FFAR 1 and the attachments selected are designed to negate that.
The downsides being its recoil and its high RPM which can quickly see you emptying your mag while there is still work to be done. Also, side note if you are used to the mobility offered by the Mac-10 this gun may feel a little on the heavy side but that's why the lightweight Bruiser Grip is the way to go.
To combat the standard small magazine size the Salvo 50 Rnd Fast Mag will keep you in the action for longer.
The Agency Suppressor will increase control over vertical recoil and gives you full concealment of the muzzle flash.
The Raider Stock reduces the Sprint to Fire time by 30% as well as increases your walking speed while ADS at a cost of hip-fire accuracy.
To top it off the 21.2" Ranger increases the bullet velocity by 100% giving you that melting effect that the Mac-10 has.
