A classic Assault Rifle comeback.

The STG44 has made its epic return in Modern Warfare 3 and Warzone Season 5. Veteran players will likely remember this Assault Rifle from previous Call of Duty titles. However, this time around, it’s got a more modern look with its revamped design. We’re here to show you the best STG44 loadouts for MW3 and Warzone using all attachments.

For the best STG44 loadout in MW3 Multiplayer, place the following attachments:

  • Muzzle: VT-7 Spiritfire Suppressor
  • Magazine: 40 Round Drum
  • Stock: DR79 Combo Stock
  • Barrel: Heinrichter C70 Long Barrel
  • Underbarrel: DR-6 Handstop

Since MW3 features many smaller-scale maps, it’s a good idea to equip an attachment for mobility and handling. For this, use the DR-6 Handstop Underbarrel to improve movement speed. You can also attach the Heinrichter C70 Long Barrel for better bullet velocity and range.

I always recommend extending a weapon’s magazine size, so use the 40 Round Mag to increase the STG44’s capacity. While it does have a movement disadvantage, the attachment at least has more speed than the 50 Round Mag. The last two items help out with recoil control, range, and stability. Altogether, the STG44 will be unstoppable for Modern Warfare 3 Multiplayer.

With Warzone, we need to focus more on the STG44’s range and accuracy due to the larger map sizes. Equip these attachments to enhance its performance:

  • Underbarrel: Bruen Bastion Angled Grip
  • Rear Grip: Citadel Grip
  • Barrel: Bruen Acrux Heavy Barrel
  • Magazine: 40 Round Mag
  • Optic: Cronen Mini Pro

The Bruen Bastion Angled Grip improves accuracy, allowing for better aiming and stability. However, you’ll still need to boost its recoil control, which is where the Citadel Grip comes in. I also suggest placing an Optic for better accuracy. It’s entirely up to you to pick out the best one, but if you need a recommendation, go for the classic Cronen Mini Pro.

To maximize the STG44’s range and damage rates, equip the Bruen Acrux Heavy Barrel. Bullet Velocity and Damage Range will be increased, just at the cost of lower aim-down speeds.
