Best SA-B 50 Modern Warfare 2 loadout

• Stock: XRK Spector Mod
• Rear Grip: Schlager Match Grip
• Laser: FSS OLE-V Laser
• Bolt: FSS ST87 Bolt
• Optic: FTAC Charlie7

The SA-B 50 is undeniably a powerful weapon but can be relatively slow, especially when getting into a gunfight with an Assault Rifle like the M4. That’s why we recommend using attachments that will increase your mobility like your aim down sight speed, movement speed, and sprint to fire. For those perks, choose the XRK Spector Mod and the Schlager Match Grip.

With a marksman rifle like the SA-B 50, one or two shots are enough to take the enemy down. Therefore you need to make sure each shot counts. To help with that, we suggest using the FSS OLE-V Laser and the FTAC Charlie7. The laser grants you easy aim when looking down the sight and the optic will keep that sigh clear and true.

Lastly, we recommend using the FSS ST87 Bolt for even more ADS and an added boost to fire rate, just in case you need one more shot.

The SA-B 50 needs some mobility control but can really pack a punch with the right loadout.

• Base Perk 1: Overkill
• Base Perk 2: Battle Hardened
• Bonus Perk: Fast Hands
• Ultimate Perk: Ghost
• Lethal: Semtex
• Tactical: Stim

Unlike a sniper, you’ll need to be up close and in the action with the SA-B 50. With that in mind, the best Base Perks to choose are undoubtedly Overkill and Battle Hardened. Overkill allows you to change to a slightly faster weapon when its required, and Battle Hardened will keep you safer from those frustrating flashes.

Since you’ve got Overkill, having Fast Hands as your Bonus Perk makes sense. It will speed up your reloading, switching between guns, and so much more.

The only option for your Ultimate Perk should be Ghost. It’s arguably the best perk in Modern Warfare 2 and will keep you hidden from all those UAVs.

As for your equipment, we recommend using Semtex and Stims. Semtex will deal some impressive damage while Stims will keep you alive when you just need to get one more shot in.
