Haymaker Conversion Kit

Completing any five challenges from the Week 3 challenge list will reward you with the JAK Maglift Kit for the Haymaker. This aftermarket part is installed with a 60-round drum magazine, a new receiver that doubles the Haymaker’s fire rate, and a binary trigger that behaves identically to the COR-45’s conversion kit. Pressing and releasing the trigger will fire a shotgun shell, significantly increasing your fire rate.

However, these bonuses come at the cost of overall damage. The JAK Maglift Kit downscales the Haymaker’s ammo to .410 gauge, reducing its damage output by 42%. Its minimum damage range is also reduced by 18%, so expect harsher damage falloff while using this attachment. The barrel and muzzle attachments are left open, however, allowing you to mitigate these negatives. Both ammunition and magazine attachment slots are locked while using the Maglift Kit.

Tips and Tricks

• Remember that you only need to complete five challenges from the list to earn the JAK Maglift Kit for the Haymaker, so pick the challenges that suit your playstyle.
• Use larger magazine attachments to give yourself some leeway on the one magazine challenges.
• For easy multikills, consider playing on maps like Rust, Shipment, Meat, and Stash House.
• We recommend using the Lockwood 680 for the shotgun challenges in MWZ. Pack-A- Punch the weapon with Slug Ammo installed to greatly increase its DPS.
• Any Warzone playlist grants progress for the operator kills, so consider playing in Plunder or Resurgence to complete the Warzone challenges.

If you’re into gaming, you may know the importance of completing challenges in any game. Completing the Week 3 challenges in Modern Warfare 3 Season 2 can earn you various rewards, including the powerful Haymaker conversion kit. Use the tips and tricks mentioned above to complete the challenges and earn the rewards. Good luck!
