Best Vaznev-9k Modern Warfare 2 loadout
- Muzzle: Bruen Pendulum
- Laser: Schlager Peq Box IV
- Optic: Cronen Mini Red Dot
- Stock: Otrezat Stock
- Rear Grip: True-Tac Grip
We start our best Vaznev-9k loadout with the Bruen Pendulum which offers a substantial boost to both horizontal and vertical recoil control, helping you keep your shots on target. Then we’ve gone for the Schlager Peq Box IV Laser, buffing ADS speed to ensure you always get the first shot in.
Mobility is vital when using an SMG in MW2, so the Otrezat Stock is a great option to increase sprint speed and how fast you move while aiming. This pairs nicely with the True-Tac Grip, which reduces the ADS and sprint-to-fire speed.
Last up is the Cronen Mini Red Dot, a clean Optic that makes the Vaznev-9k far more accurate without cluttering up the screen.
