  • Barrel: MTZ Clinch Pro Barrel
  • Optic: Slate Reflector
  • Stock: EXF Close Quarters Assault Stock
  • Rear Grip: Bruen TR-24 Assault Grip
  • Underbarrel: FTAC SP-10 Angled Grip

The MTZ Clinch Pro Barrel increases Bullet Velocity, Damage Range, Aiming Idle Sway, and Firing Aim Stability in this build. This will ensure that the weapon will function in close-range and mid-range combat. You are still recommended to be aggressive, but this particular attachment somewhat solves the range problem.

The Slate Reflector is the best scope you can go for in the game. This sight can function for medium and close-range combat, as the enemy is clearly visible, but you will not have to deal with any other visual obstacles.

The EXF Close Quarters Assault Stock is crafted to ensure you can become as aggressive as possible. This Stock makes combat around tight corners extremely smooth, making it useful when going up against SMGs.

The Bruen TR-24 Assault Grip improves your recoil control, Gun Kick Control, and Firing Aim Stability. Therefore, the handling of the weapon will improve significantly with this attachment.

The FTAC SP-10 Angled Grip further increases the weapon’s stability, ensuring you will never miss your bullets in the game.
