Call of Duty Vanguard MP-40 loadout and class setup

Call of Duty Vanguard multiplayer is in full effect, and a lot of players are gravitating toward the MP-40. The submachine gun provides some excellent accuracy, superior speed, and plenty of firepower with the proper attachments. Here’s a look at one of the top Call of Duty Vanguard MP-40 loadout and class setups out there right now. 

As always, class setups and weapon loadouts are fairly subjective. That means you may not agree with what we listed for our Call of Duty Vanguard MP-40 loadout and setup, but that’s not a problem. We put this together as more of a guide for you to use if you’re unsure where to start.

Call of Duty Vanguard MP40 loadout

• Muzzle – F8 Stabilizer
• Barrel – Krausnick 317MM 04B
• Underbarrel – M1930 Strife Angled
• Magazine – 7.62 Gorenko 32 Round Mags
• Ammo Type – FMJ Rounds
• Optic – Slate Reflector
• Rear Grip – Fabric Grip
• Stock – VDD 34M Padded
• Proficiency – Momentum
• KIT – Surplus

The F8 Stabilizer adds 2 Accuracy and 1 Damage Range and sacrifices a bit of Sprint to Fire Speed and Hip Fire Accuracy. For our barrel, we’ll go with the Krausnick 317MM 04B for highly accurate and controllable reduced scope sway and gun bob. It’s a nice barrel for more accuracy at range, especially when using a scope.

The M1930 Strife Angled underbarrel adds two more Accuracy and 1 Aiming Stability and Aim Walking Steadiness. We’ll also be using 7.62 Gorenko 32 Round Mags along with full metal jacket rounds for more penetration and stronger bullets.

Fabric Grip adds some Aim Down Sight Speed, Sprint to Fire Speed, and Hip Fire Recoil Recovery we lost elsewhere. We go with the VDD 34M Padded for the Stock to offset some recoil and improve accuracy and flinch resistance. Optics are up to you, but most players seem to be running the SLate Reflector since it’s a simple scope that doesn’t take up too much screen real estate.

For weapon perks, Momentum is a good one for bonus move speed after kills, as well as Surplus for bonus XP. 

As far as loadout perks are concerned, it’s up to your playstyle. However, you could go with some of these options:

• Fortified – Reduces damage from explosives by 15%. Damage reduction doubled while mounted, crouched, or prone. It also reduces the health regen delay from explosives.
• Tracker – Enemies leave a footprint trail. See the markers at enemy death locations, and hide the death markers of enemies you kill.
• Double Time – Double the duration of Tactical Sprint. Increase crouch movement speed by 30%.

For your perks and equipment, chances are you’ll want to go with a frag grenade and, of course, a stim for that added health regeneration.
