Fortnite took a note from a few 1920's New York mobsters when they added this gun into the mix. The drum gun was immediately a fan favorite as it had a large magazine size and a fire rate unlike any other weapon.

Players could tear through builds and still have an incredibly accurate bullet spread. The weapon has not been seen within the game since Chapter 2: Season 2, when it was a mythic weapon. This is partially due to how overpowered it was.

7. Heavy Sniper Rifle
