Although the Striker 9 has seen improvements in several stats, its horizontal and vertical recoil have experienced an uptick.

That’s why LunchTime uses the most optimal attachments to tame the firearm’s recoil, without compromising mobility and handling.

He selects the L4R Flash Hider for the muzzle slot, which elevates gun kick and recoil control. Additionally, it conceals the flash emitted from your gun when firing, thereby making it hard for the enemies to determine your exact position.

Next, he goes with the Striker Elite Long Barrel to further bolster recoil control while increasing damage range and bullet velocity.

He then chooses the Sakin ZX Grip. This rear grip attachment not only decreases gun kick and recoil but also boosts firing aim stability.

To compensate for the reductions in mobility and handling, he equips the DR-6 Handstop, which enhances aim walking speed, ADS speed, sprint to fire speed, and movement speed.
