In shooters / battle royales like Free Fire, movement speed is one of the most crucial stats that's often underestimated by gamers. By moving fast, you would be able to get to your current objective before your enemy, be it a flanking maneuver, escaping the danger zone or even getting to a loot spot. That's why people consider Kelly's skill useful, despite it being a measly 6% boost.
In this article, we would list out the weapons with the highest and lowest movement stat (which is an indication of their weight, obviously, as you would move slower carrying a heavier weapon).
1 - The heaviest guns
Gatling Gun
The Gatling pretty much tops this list with an overwhelming difference in weight, reducing players' movement speed to a measly 32. This means you can only move at 1/3 the normal speed while holding this gun.
The fact that the Gatling Gun is the heaviest weapon is pretty obvious - this gun was not actually intended for carrying around. Usually, the Gatling gun would be mounted on a vehicle or on the stationary high ground. Moving it around, dragging the magazine along and aiming it is a feat only the strongest human would be able to accomplish.
AUG
The runner up is actually pretty surprising - the new weapon AUG is the second most heavy weapon in Free Fire, cutting down your movement speed in half when holding. Overall, this weapon is probably overbalanced, with low movement speed and super low accuracy.
2 - The lightest guns
As you can probably guess, melee weapons are the lightest in Free Fire, with 88 movement stat. You can pretty much run like the Flash holding them. However, this list is about guns... and surprisingly enough, the pistols are actually not the lightest guns in the game.
UMP
Yes, the lightest gun in the game is actually not a pistol - its the SMG UMP. With a movement stat of 79, it is lighter than the usual pistol and would boost your movement speed more than Kelly's skill ever could. With the exception of the M500, all these pistols are at about the same level of 75-76 movement stats.
