How to tilt your gun in MW2
Impress your friends and foes in the Killcam by learning how to tilt your gun in the game.
Not to be confused with mounting or leaning, it's possible to tilt your gun to the side in Modern Warfare 2. There are thankfully plenty of benefits linked to this specific action, but you'll also need to understand the drawbacks before you jump into your next game.
How to tilt your gun
To tilt your gun, you need the Canted Vibro-Dot 7 Laser attachment. Typically, when you aim down sight (ADS) in MW2, your Operator peaks through your Optic for a better view. However, with the Canted Vibro-Dot 7 equipped, your Operator will instead tilt the gun to the side, offering a clear view of the target in front of you.
Tilting your gun is beneficial in close to medium-range engagements and it'll also earn you some style points on the Killcam!
How to unlock the Canted Vibro-Dot 7
Before you can tilt your gun, you'll, of course, need the required attachment, and to do so you must raise the TAQ-56 to Level 10.
The Canted Vibro-Dot 7 offers benefits to Aiming Stability, Aim Down Sight Speed, and Sprint to Fire Speed. As for the cons, the Canted Vibro-Dot 7 Laser is visible while aiming down sights, penalizes Recoil Stabilisation, and you can't add an Optic with it equipped.
However, that's a small price to pay for the ability to tilt your gun in MW2, also known as Canted Laser Aiming.
