Best MG42 Loadout and Class in Call of Duty: Warzone

Although it may not be as good as the Bren and some other weapons in its class, the MG42 Light Machine Gun is definitely worth using if you prefer a gun with a low recoil and a high fire rate. This guide showcases the best MG42 attachments and loadout in Warzone Pacific.

This long-range MG42 build focuses on boosting the weapon's control and bullet velocity. For maximum accuracy and recoil control, we equip the MX Silencer muzzle, 32M barrel, M1941 underbarrel, and Sakura drum magazine.

Furthermore, the Polymer rear grip and Tight Grip perk specifically help with recoil control while shooting the gun continuously. The Vanguard LMG also has significantly improved flinch resistance thanks to the stock and barrel attachments we've used.

The weapon gets its much-needed bullet velocity and range stats from the Lengthened ammo type and 32M barrel. While using this gun, you'll have to get accustomed to the slow movement and aim-down-sight (ADS) speeds, which is expected of a bulky LMG.
