If you are looking to rack up kills fast inย Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 2, you cannot go wrong with the Chimera Assault Rifle, a.k.a. the “Honey Badger.” This weapon is beastly at close ranges and mows down opponents with ease. This is because the Chimera specializes in high damage output with a superior rate of fire. While its remaining stats are nothing spectacular, they are balanced enough to provide decent smoothness and stability when wielding this AR. The Chimera’s only weakness is its mediocre range, which might compel some players to use it as a secondย primary for a Sniper Rifleย with Overkill.
