Best Guns in BGMI 2023: Get the Competitive Edge with these Top Firearms

Here are the best guns in BGMI!

After getting banned last year, BGMI, or Battleground Mobile India, is back in India. It looks like mobile gamers were waiting for this moment, as no other game has replaced the game after it was banned. The battle royale game focuses on scoring a Chicken Dinner using unique tactics and skills. However, guns play an important role in the game, and they can be a deciding factor when it comes to some of those crazy clutches.

The game offers a wide variety of firearms that you can in the battlefield. We have some guns that have high base damage, while others have high firing rates. This is why it is important to know the best guns while in battle. Let us discuss all the best guns in Battlegrounds Mobile India in this list, arranged according to the gun type. We have also mentioned base damage, ammo type, fire rates, and more in this article. Read on.

MK 47, or Mutant, is one of the best and most popular ARs in BGMI. It features the highest base damage of all Assault Rifles and uses 7.62mm ammo. It deals 49 damage and is commonly found across maps. It can be switched from single shot to burst mode.

Groza is a beast in close-range combat with the most damage dealt in close range. It has a base damage of 47 and uses 7.62mm ammo. It is also found across maps commonly.

AKM is one of the most iconic guns in BGMI. It has been there since the game's first release as PUBG Mobile. It deals 47 damage and uses 7.62mm ammo. It has a fire rate of 0.10 seconds and deals heavy damage in close to medium range.

AWM, or Arctic Warfare Magnum, is not only the best sniper rifle in BGMI, but it is also one of the best guns overall in the game. It stands tall with the highest damage rate among its peers, giving 105 damage. It can also damage a level 3 helmet by 80 to 90%. It is a rare gun and can be found only on airdrops. The ammo it uses is the .300 magnum, also located in the airdrop.

M24 is a great sniper in BGMI. It gives 76 damage and uses the 7.62mm ammo. Both are common and can be found anywhere on the maps. It provides less damage than AWM but isn't a rare gun. It can damage a level 2 helmet and can deal maximum damage at 120 metres.

Kar98k is one of the most popular snipers among BGMI players. It deals damage of 75 and uses 7.62mm ammo. It needs two hits to knock down an enemy using a level 2 helmet. Like M24, this gun can be found anywhere on the map.

Mark 14 Enhanced Battle Rifle, or Mk14 EBR, is an improved version of the SKS rifle, and it can only be acquired from airdrops. It can be switched to automatic fire mode, which no other DMR can do. It has high recoil levels, deals 46 damage, and uses 5.56mm ammo.

QBU is a DMR that's only available on the Sanhok map. It has a default bipod, and deploying that while prone gives it one of the best recoil reductions in a gun in the game. It deals damage of 48 and uses 5.56mm ammo.

SLR, or Self Loading Rifle, is one of the most popular DMRs among BGMI players. It is a standard gun in BGMI and can be used in all game maps. It deals more damage than most DMRs and is hard to control without attachments because of the high recoil.

UMP 45 is one of the most powerful and popular SMGs in BGMI. It was earlier called UMP 9; the name was changed after the gun in the game switched to 0.45 ACP ammo from 9mm ammo. It deals 35 damage and has a fire rate of 0.09 seconds.

Another popular SMG is Tommy Gun or Thomason. It deals the most damage among SMGs and uses the same 0.45 ACP ammo that UMP 45 uses. It deals 40 base damage and is a common gun in all the maps in the game.

The Vector is a close-range beast and one of the best SMGs in BGMI. It has lower damage of 31, but the higher firing rate of 0.054 seconds compensates for that.

Sawed-off is the only shotgun to be categorised under Pistols. It is similar to S686 and has a base damage greater than any other pistol. It can deal 160 base damage and is an unstoppable force at short range. It uses 12 gauge ammo and has a fire rate of 0.25 seconds.

Desert Eagle has more damage than most pistols, reaching 62 per hit. It can knock down an enemy with a level 3 helmet with two shots to the head and can do that with one headshot for a level 1 helmet.

P18C is a pistol that uses 9mm ammo and fires in full auto mode. It is one of the best pistols in the game but deals low base damage.

DBS is often called the king of close combat, as it can knock down an enemy in a single shot. It has a higher ammo capacity of 13 loads and deals with 25 HP per pellet damage.

S12K is one of the best shotguns in BGMI as it supports more attachments than other shotguns. You can attach a scope, a muzzle and a mag to this gun, which no other shotguns can do. It has a higher fire rate than other shotguns as well. It has a base damage rate of 24 HP per hit and uses 12 gauge bullets.

S686 is a powerful shotgun that takes two bullets per load. You need to reload after the two shots, but if the first two shots get hit, it's game over for the enemy. It deals with 26 base damage and uses 12 gauge ammo.
