Best VEL 46 loadout in Modern Warfare 2

This VEL 46 loadout focuses on improving the ADS speed and sprint to fire speed, while maintaining the VEL 46’s damage so that you can charge around the map and quickly drop enemies in a few shots.

Since we’re aiming to improve the speed of the VEL 46, we recommend using theLM Series-7barrel, theVEL A-568 Collapsedstock, and theSchlager Soldier Grip. Each of those attachments improves ADS speed, while the latter two also boost sprint to fire speed. The LM Series-7 also increases recoil control, which we can push further using theSA Schalldampfer 99. As a suppressor, the Schalldampfer also makes your shots quieter.

The final key attachment in this VEL 46 loadout is the50 Round Mag, which significantly increases the ammo capacity of the VEL 46 so that you don’t need to reload between kills. With 50 rounds, you should find that you can drop a group of enemies with ease without needing to worry about falling back to reload.

Best secondary weapon

The VEL 46 focuses on short-range encounters, so we recommend using a long range alternative as your secondary weapon. Thebest sniper rifles in Modern Warfare 2, such as theSP-X 80, theMCPR-300, or theSignal 50, offer excellent power and precision for long range firefights. If you’re after something a little quicker that excels at medium range, consider using ourFTAC Recon loadout.

Best perks and equipment

For your tactical equipment slot, use theStim Shotso that you can quickly regenerate health and your tactical sprint and jump back into the fight. In your lethal slot, useThermiteto set enemy groups ablaze.
