Best STG-44 Loadout in Warzone

By default, the STG-44 is fairly strong across the board, featuring great recoil control and damage range. However, given the nature of most Warzone fights with assault rifles, you’ll want to increase both of those stats along with bullet velocity and magazine capacity. All of these stats are boosted on my loadout below:

  • Barrel: Bruen Acrux Heavy Barrel
  • Optic: Corio Eagleseye 2.5x
  • Stock: Igenous L5 Stock
  • Underbarrel: Bruen Heavy Support Grip
  • Magazine: 50 Round Drum

We begin the loadout with the Bruen Acrux Heavy Barrel, which massively boosts your damage range and bullet velocity. These are the two most important stats for an AR in Warzone, so these increases give you a chance to compete with other meta weapons at range. Following up the barrel are the Igneous L5 Stock and the Bruen Heavy Support Grip, both of which improve recoil control, stability, and gun kick control.

Rounding out the loadout is the classic Corio Eagleseye 2.5x optic and the 50 Round Drum magazine. You can opt for another optic if you prefer, but the 50 Round Drum is essential to winning longer gunfights with the STG-44 in Warzone.
