How are people using recon AR/BR so early in WZ?

I have those guns to use but I need level 8 req to enable them. I was just in a game and in a fight capturing garage for the first time, killed a guy and he dropped the recon BR with enhanced distance scope, etc. How are people getting these guns so quick? They can’t possibly hit 8 req level within 4 minutes, right? I gotta be missing something. Any help would be great. Still getting the hang of Warzone and what to use and when.

Maybe the Random Weapon REQ Card? I don’t actually know how they work. I’ve never used one.

You have the bayonet version. Bayonet doesn’t come in until late game which is level 8. People have the standard recon or longshot AR with a barrel. Probably a silencer or the promethean one.

I can use mine at level 2

You got the special BR
Most BR’s usually unlock at req 3

Just walk up to a req station in home base and switch out. It only needs a req level of 2 and you get that off bat

The recon AR can be used from the very start of the game…or REQ level 2. Not hard to get. And BR is level 3…
Longshot BR is also a level 3.

Only level 8 req AR and BR is the Energy Bayonet ones
