Free Fire players have been facing a bug that allowed them to shoot through ice walls using the Barret M82B . The game's developers have already noticed this issue and have announced the temporary removal of the weapon until the issue is fixed.

Free Fire offers a wide selection of weapons for its players. These weapons are divided into several categories such as shotguns, submachine guns, sniper rifles, assault rifles and more.

Developers regularly add new firearms to the game, with the latest addition being the Slingshot. With each update, they tweak or balance existing weapons to provide a better gaming experience for their players.

"We are currently working to fix this issue as soon as possible" says the Free Fire developer team

Free Fire Mania had access to an exclusive report which states that the Barret M82B was removed due to the Gel Wall bug, which allowed players to fire from inside the Ice and those who took advantage of this flaw, took advantage in matches.
