Fire Riveter Build MW3 – The Riveter, commonly known as the ‘M4 Shotgun’ due to its striking resemblance to the AR, is a full-auto shotgun in Modern Warfare 3 that can turn close-range encounters into a fiery spectacle. If you’ve spent even a few hours in MW3 Multiplayer, chances are you’ve faced this incredibly fast-firing shotgun that turns your screen into an inferno.
In this guide, we’ll be delving into the “FIRE RIVETER” build, optimizing the potential of its .410 Gauge Incendiary rounds to set your enemies ablaze in MW3!
Best Fire Riveter Loadout in Modern Warfare 3
The best thing about this build is that it applies a ticking burning effect to any enemy you shoot. Even if you’re taken out, you might guarantee an afterlife kill if you’ve weakened your opponent enough. However, note that if the enemy has equipped EOD Padding in one of their gear slots, they’ll take reduced burn damage.
That said, this fiery hot Riveter loadout aims to not only make your rounds set enemies on fire but also to increase the overall accuracy and range of the shotgun while making it handle better and more mobile.
Here are the best attachments to achieve a perfect balance between all the essential stats, turning the Riveter into the ultimate killing machine in close-range maps:

---|---|---|
Barrel | SA Draven-20 Long Barrel | Increases effective range and bullet velocity for consistent damage at a distance. |
Underbarrel | Bruen Bastion Angled Grip | Tightens hipfire and tac stance spread by a flat 20%, ensuring greater accuracy. |
