Best Tier 3 Weapons

Escape From Tarkov Tier 3 weapons are sometimes too expensive and don’t offer enough value, or they are cheap and accessible weapons for those just starting off in Escape From Tarkov.

Saiga-9

Probably not the best gun in our Tier 3 weapons list, this semi-automatic carbine lacks firepower and isn’t very useful against armored targets.

However, the weapon is pretty accurate so you can still do some serious damage if the enemy is carrying a weapon with poor handling. Still, it is too expensive and isn’t worth it.
